Chelsea news: Cesc Fabregas claim made about THIS Wolves star after Blues defeat
WOLVES star Morgan Gibbs-White has been tipped to have a big future and has been likened to Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas.
Gibbs-White produced a mature display as Wolves stunned Chelsea with a 2-1 win at Molineux on Wednesday night.
The Blues slipped to their second defeat in three games under Maurizio Sarri after an impressive start to the season.
Gibbs-White caught the eye against the west London outfit and provided an assist, and this was something that didn’t go unnoticed by Danny Murphy.
Having watched him earlier in the season, Murphy thinks there are shades about Fabregas with Gibbs-White.
“He’s gonna be special,” Murphy said on BBC’s Match of the Day.
“I can’t help but get excited about him.
“He’s got the lot - he’s quick, a great passer of the ball.
“For someone so young, you can see he has confidence matched with a work ethic.
Against Tottenham when I first saw him, he was passing the ball in the middle of the park like Cesc [Fabregas]
“He glides past people so effortlessly.
“Against Tottenham when I first saw him, he was passing the ball in the middle of the park like Cesc [Fabregas].
“He’s got that talent, he can dribble.
“He’s strong for a slight lad.
