Bristol Rovers manager Joey Barton claims “it’s only a matter of time” before Aaron Collins earns his first call-up to the Wales squad, if the Gas striker continues his rate of development for the Gas.
Collins claimed his fifth assist of the season when he danced his way down the left channel past two Cambridge United defenders before sending in a low cross for Josh Coburn to convert and seal a 2-1 win at the Mem. The 25-year-old now has 11 goals contributions for the 2022/23 campaign - one every 96 minutes.
He has made a seamless transition from League Two into the third tier, bringing creativity as well as panache in front of goal, and Barton is confident the level of his performances, the consistency of his production and the fact there is still more to come, will have attracted interest from Wales scouts.
