Man City star Esme Morgan tipped as future England captain

Man City manager Gareth Taylor has tipped Esme Morgan for a bright future, predicting she could one day be named England captain.

He said: “She’s a really talented player, after working with her for a few weeks, I had really high hopes that she’s going to be the future of Manchester City and a future England captain - she has the potential to do that. She understands how hard she has to work in order to get there, but it’s a really nice reward for Esme after suffering a difficult period last season.”

Morgan had a tough year recovering from a leg fracture that has kept her out of action for almost 12 months. But two months after her return to her club, Sarina Wiegman picked up the phone.
