CELEBRATING like Kylian Mbappe but finishing like his granddad Ian Wright, D’Margio Wright-Phillips made the most of his amazing solo goal for Blackburn in the FA Youth Cup.
The 18-year-old is currently on a youth loan from Manchester City and his goal helped set up a semi-final tie against his parent club, meaning he is ineligible to play.
And ironically the amazing goal came against Arsenal – where granddad Ian is a club legend.
Wright-Phillips took the ball from just inside the Arsenal half before firing a low shot just inside the penalty area into the bottom corner before making the most of the celebrations.
A back-flip, similar to Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang, was followed up by the arms folded celebration that Mbappe is known for.
The youngster, son of Shaun Wright-Phillips, has made a good impression since moving to Ewood Park, resulting in him moving up to the under-23 squad.
Under-18 boss Mike Sheron is unsure where the winger will end up but is hopeful the club can secure a deal for the City player.
Sheron told the Lancashire Telegraph: “A lot of the time he’s training with the Under-23s, coming up against some good players every day, and slowly we’re seeing the rewards.
“I’m not sure what the future plans are, but he’s given himself a good chance here.
D’Margio has been at City since he was 11 and is aiming to follow in the footsteps of his dad, who spent nine years at the club over two spells.
Shaun Wright-Phillips won the Premier League and FA Cup with Chelsea during his three years at Stamford Bridge.
D’Margio has represented England at youth level, while dad Shaun won 36 full caps and granddad Ian made 33 appearances and scored nine goals.
