An exciting, high energy midfielder, Martin Peychev joined the Academy of Football at U9s and, after continuing to develop his game, signed his scholarship in the summer of 2025.

Peychev scored eleven goals for the U16s during the 2024/25 season, a campaign which also saw him make his U18s debut in a 4-1 league victory over Reading, and feature on the bench in the FA Youth Cup.

A modern day box-to-box midfield player who is comfortable on the ball, Peychev has represented Bulgaria at U15s and U17s level.
