Career

Wycombe Wanderers

On 2 July 2012, Angol was signed by Wycombe Wanderers after leaving Tottenham Hotspur, having been a regular in their academy team.[3] He made his professional debut on 11 August as a 100th-minute substitute for Matt Bloomfield against Watford in the League Cup first round, which finished as a 1–0 defeat after extra time.[4] Angol then made his league debut as an 84th-minute substitute for Grant Basey in a 1–0 defeat at home to Gillingham on 21 August.[4] On 28 January 2013, Angol joined Isthmian League Premier Division club Hendon on a five-week loan.[5] He scored on his debut two days later in a 3–1 victory over Croydon in the London Senior Cup,[6] and this was followed up with a goal in the following match, a 2–1 victory over Carshalton Athletic.[7] Angol's loan was extended on 7 March until 2 April.[8] He completed the loan spell with three goals from 10 appearances.[9] Upon his return to Wycombe, Angol signed a new one-year contract with the club in May 2013.[10]

Angol started 2013–14 on loan at Hendon, having rejoined the club on a one-month loan on 17 August 2013.[11] He scored on his second debut later that day in a 5–3 defeat at home to Maidstone United,[12] and completed the loan spell with two goals from four appearances.[9] Angol joined Conference South club Maidenhead United on a one-month youth loan on 5 October.[13][14] He made his debut and only appearance for the club later that day in a 3–1 defeat at home to Havant & Waterlooville.[15][16] On 24 January 2014, Angol signed for Maidenhead's Conference South rivals Boreham Wood on an initial one-month loan.[17] He debuted a day later as a 77th-minute substitute in a 2–2 draw at home to Dover Athletic.[15] Angol's loan was extended until the end of the season, which he completed with 22 appearances and seven goals.[18]
