The Sheffield Wednesday Under-23s striker Preslav Borukov has travelled with the first-team squad to Queens Park Rangers.
Borukov signed for Wednesday from Levski Sofia in 2016 and has impressed for the Owls’ development sides.
But a senior bow has so far eluded the Bulgaria U21 international.
That could soon change, however, after Borukov was filmed at the team hotel on Thursday by the Sheffield Wednesday assistant coach Lee Bullen.
Like all newcomers, the 19-year-old was made to perform an initiation song for his colleagues.

And though his rendition of some Ed Sheeran ***** is unlikely to impress the X-Factor judges, those present certainly seemed to enjoy it.

Speaking earlier this week, the Sheffield Wednesday manager Garry Monk insisted that his side are looking to progress to the FA Cup fifth round.
But changes are expected at QPR following Saturday’s shock 5-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers.
And after Steven Fletcher’s injury created a vacancy in the Wednesday attack, Borukov’s chances of featuring at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium have surely increased.
In the previous round against Brighton and Hove Albion, Monk gave a debut to the teenage defender Osaze Urhoghide, who kept his place for the forthcoming league games against Leeds United and Blackburn.
