“Let’s wait and see how it goes but I’m really looking forward to it.”

He added: “You know what, it was so good. Really, really enjoyed doing it. Obviously my first time in the kit, speaking to a lot of the people then, they said me and Ghetts done well.

“So listen, I’ll listen to the pros and I’ll take that. So yeah, really happy. Buzzing. Been an amazing day and great first experience.

“It might be a career after football now, I don’t know but no I enjoy these type of things. I love fashion and to be asked to be involved in this is really special so you know it was something I couldn’t turn down and then to do it now I’m here, I’m really, really happy.”
