Wolves youngster Morgan Gibbs-White is reportedly being monitored by England manager Gareth Southgate.

According to the Daily Mail, the 18-year-old is on the watch-list of the Lions boss and he rates him extremely highly.

It is understood that Southgate wants the midfielder to gain more top-flight experience before bringing him into the senior England squad, but he’s firmly on his radar and believes he’s got great potential.

Gibbs-White is an upcoming talent at Molineux right now, but is still on the fringes of the first team and his game-time is limited as it stands.

The teenager has come off the bench in four Premier League matches so far and is waiting for his first start in the top flight, while he’s featured in both Carabao Cup games.

After the surprise revelation about Southgate placing Gibbs-White on his radar, it will be interesting to see if his club manager Nuno Espirito Santo opts to give him more chances to impress.

The Portuguese boss will certainly not be afraid to throw the youngster into matches if he feels he can make a difference and has made him a part of the senior squad this campaign.

But unfortunately the central midfielder has some incredible competition in the squad to battle against in the shape of Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho.

Gibbs-White may have to continue being patient for the meantime, but is certainly a technically gifted player that is neat on the ball and should take huge encouragement by the latest England reports.
