“Jonah is getting better and better, we know what a talent he is,” Robinson said.
“Scores his goals and we are delighted for all the hard work he has put in. There is a lot of people who have put a lot of work into that, obviously none more so than Jonah.

FKFPL Japanese sensation Yuto Kusaba opens up on the struggles he faced before joining Nairobi City Stars
Nairobi City Stars forward Yuto Kusaba has opened up on the challenges he had to go through in Japan before moving to Kenya.
Ayunga celebrated by sticking the ball under his jersey as a nod to his pregnant partner.
Robinson added: “I’m not sure how long (she has) to go. That will be a special moment.
“What you don’t appreciate when you’re out injured is how it affects your other half – they take the brunt of everything. They’re the real strong ones and I’m sure Jonah would agree.”
The 26-year-old, who joined Saints from English side Morecambe in the summer 2022 on an original two-year deal, extended his stay at the club until the summer of 2025 in September.
Ayunga, who has already declared that he would like to represent Harambee Stars at the World Cup, will be hoping to build on from his Man-of-the-Match performance against Ross County to earn a call-up to the Kenyan squad.
