Wolves’ young star Morgan Gibbs-White finally opened his goalscoring account with fine strike during their 4-0 victory over Premier League rivals Newcastle United in the Premier League Asia Trophy in China yesterday – with many fans reacting to the goal on Twitter.
Gibbs-White is an academy graduate who made his debut aged just 16 in Wolves’ FA Cup win over Stoke City back in January 2017. Since then he has gone on to appear for The Wanderers first-team 54 times, the majority of which came last season as he played in 31 matches, registering one assist.
Many of the Molineux fanbase took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the goal with the overriding consensus being that the 19-year-old has a great future ahead of him with one supporter believing he will play a big part in the team this coming season.
Another fan claimed that the youngster is going to be amazing this season which was reinforced by further opinion that Gibbs-White would score eight goals from midfield.
Gibbs-White doubled Wolves’ lead in the 32nd minute firing low past Freddie Woodman after capitalising on The Magpies’ poor defending.
Here’s the best of the reaction from Wolves supporters:
