Morgan Gibbs-White, a Tottenham Hotspur prospect, has caught the eyes of Phil Foden and Ryan Sessegnon.
The player from Nottingham Forest recently featured on Instagram after aiding England’s Under-21 squad in their qualification for the European Championships.
This Saturday, England gets the opportunity to secure their first Under-21 Euros victory since 1984 in a match against Spain.
Last night, they faced a formidable Israeli team.
During the first half, Morgan Gibbs-White took center stage, taking a penalty following a foul on Anthony Gordon.
However, after a lengthy VAR review, the 23-year-old missed his shot, leaving the match scoreless.
Gibbs-White redeemed himself before half-time by skillfully putting the ball past the Israeli goalie, giving England the lead.
He also played a key role in setting up Cole Palmer’s second goal, and now looks forward to the final on Saturday.
Both Phil Foden and Tottenham’s defender Ryan Sessegnon were appreciative of Gibbs-White’s performance.
There have been prior indications of Spurs’ interest, however, the substantial fee Nottingham Forest paid for him last year might make a transfer this summer tough to arrange.

After the match, Gibbs-White took to Instagram with the message: “90 minutes away from history! Finalists!”
Ryan Sessegnon expressed that he was exceptional yesterday, with Foden adding: “What a player.”
Quickly making strides, Morgan Gibbs-White is an extremely talented young player.
He received considerable pressure to justify the £42.5m spent by Forest on him the prior summer.
After a somewhat slow start, he became an instrumental figure in helping the club remain in the Premier League.
Both Foden and Sessegnon are fans of Gibbs-White, and the defender might be pleased to see him join Tottenham.
James Maddison’s recent sign up to Spurs lessens the need to acquire the talented 23-year-old.
Spurs has needed an innovative presence in midfield for a while, a role that Maddison suits.
Therefore, Gibbs-White could continue to be a player that Spurs fans enjoy from a distance for the foreseeable future.
