Morgan Gibbs-White has been pictured training with Wolverhampton Wanderers after being exiled from the first-team following his breach of lockdown regulations.
In May, the 20-year-old was pictured at a lockdown party in London. He was given a serious talking to by Nuno Espirito Santo, a hefty fine by Wolves and an order to self-isolate from the first-team for a period of days.
Gibbs-White is now back and has seemingly patched things up with Nuno if he’s training, so the central midfielder can now focus on Wolves’ trip to face West Ham United on June 19-21.

There are nine opportunities for Gibbs-White to potentially salvage his career at Molineux. The 20-year-old has made only three appearances in 2020 and was recently playing in the reserves because he wasn’t getting minutes in the first-team.
Nuno has preferred Ruben Neves, Romain Saiss, Joao Moutinho and Leander Dendoncker, Bruno Jordao in the engine room, so Gibbs-White has to work hard getting himself back in favour before the season ends.
He’s recovered from a recent ankle injury, it remains to be seen if he’ll make the matchday squad against United. After that Wolves have meetings with Bournemouth, Aston Villa, Arsenal, Sheffield United, Everton, Burnley, Crystal Palace and Chelsea to come.
Diabolical player who needs to be moved on. Waste of a shirt number
