In a week that he turned 18, we sat down with the highly-rated youngster to get to know him a little better...
Position: Midfielder/Defender
Date of birth: 29/03/2002
Former club: Barrow
How long have you been at Rovers:
I’ve been at the club for about five years now. I played against Rovers for Barrow at Under-13s level and impressed enough to sign for Rovers about two weeks after that game.
Best thing about being at Rovers:
It would have to be the environment. It’s a happy place, everyone’s cheery, the facilities are great and I really love playing games. We’re all friends in the squad.
Club you support:
I support Liverpool. My dad supported them so I followed in his footsteps.
Football superstitions:
I put my left sock on and left boot on first. There’s no real reason I do it, it’s just something I do for training and games.
Best friend in football:
That would have to be my room-mate, Sam Burns. He’s a good room-mate, is always happy and aside from talking in his sleep sometimes he’s absolutely great!
Idol growing up:
Steven Gerrard. He was brilliant to watch and learn from. He was a really special player.
Describe yourself as a player:
I’d say I’m composed on the ball, have a good range of passing with both feet as well as being strong in the air.
Highlight of your career:
Winning the Lancashire Senior Cup final against Burnley was a really good day. I got on for the final 10 or 15 minutes. We won a tournament in France at Under-15s level as well, which was also great. The international tournaments have been brilliant experiences.
