Sylvester Alexander Jasper (Template:Lang-bg; born 13 September 2001) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for Fulham. Born in England, he represents Bulgaria at youth level.

Club career

Jasper started his youth career in Queens Park Rangers at age of 9 and moved to Fulham 2 years later.[2] In January 2020 he made his professional debut for the team in a FA Cup match against Manchester City.[3] On 25 August 2020, Jasper signed his first professional contract with Fulham.[4]

On 4 August 2021, Jasper joined League Two side Colchester United on loan until January 2022.[5] He made his debut from the bench on 7 August in Colchester's 0–0 draw with Carlisle United.[6]

On 31 January 2022, Jasper joined Scottish club Hibernian on loan for the rest of the season, which included an option to buy at the end of the season.[7] Jasper made 16 appearances for Hibs during the loan, but they declined the option to sign him permanently.[8][9]

On 1 September 2022, Jasper signed for League One club Bristol Rovers on loan for the 2022–23 season.[10] He made his debut two days later as a second half substitute in a 2–2 draw with Morecambe.[11] After being left out of the squad for a 2–2 draw against Plymouth Argyle, Rovers manager Joey Barton announced that Jasper was returning to Fulham due to him being unhappy with the amount of game time he has been given.[12]

International career

Jasper was born in England to a Nigerian father and a Bulgarian mother, making him eligible to represent the three countries internationally.[13] In 2016 he represented England at the under-15 level.[14]

On 2 November 2021, Jasper received his first call-up to the Bulgarian under-21 side for 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualification matches against the Netherlands under-21 and Moldova under-21 sides.[15] He made his debut for the team in the match against the Netherlands.[16]

Personal life

He attended St Richard Reynolds Roman Catholic College in Twickenham from 2013 to 2017.
