Oliver King-Onzila - Knife Crime England: Latest Teenage Victim, 19, is an England Football Captain

A teenager stabbed to death outside a bar in south London was a promising footballer who had recently captained an England team.

Oliver Kingonzila, 19, died after being found with stab wound outside the E Bar in Croydon on Saturday. Two men, both aged 18, have been arrested.

The victim had captained Barnet's youth team and skippered the England Colleges FA team in a game against Italy.

Barnet manager Paul Fairclough described Oliver as "a gentle giant".

He had come up through the ranks at Underhill and his colleagues were informed of the killing before their League Two match with Morcambe on Saturday.

The club's spokesman Dennis Signy said of the midfielder: "We were shocked to hear the news.

"Oliver was a young lad hoping to make his way in the game who had already played for the Bees."

Flowers have been left by friends outside the E Bar in South End Road, which has been cordoned off while officers search the area.

One youth, who did not want to be named, said he had been with Oliver before the stabbing took place.

He said: "There was no reason for what happened last night. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was unprovoked."
