They’ve been very welcoming, haven’t been trying to push anyone to the side or anything.“It’s a great setup in the camp.”Should the former Sunderland loan star make an appearance on Friday, he will win his second cap following his debut against Ghana back in March, a match in which he received jeers from the travelling support as they believed the youngster should have been representing them.
