KOBBIE MAINOO has left England fans purring with a silky goal in training ahead of the clash against Slovakia.
The teenage midfielder is expected to make his first start of Euro 2024 in Sunday’s last 16 clash.
England face Slovakia in Gelsenkirchen, with the winner meeting Switzerland in the quarter-finals.
Ahead of the match, the Three Lions shared footage of a solo goal from Mainoo in training to social media.
After collecting a pass from Kieran Trippier, the 19-year-old rolled the ball past Conor Gallagher to set up a chance to shoot.
Mainoo then slotted the ball into the bottom corner with the outside of this right foot.
England fans were left in awe of the Manchester United youngster’s solo strike, with one commenting: “He’s cooking.”
Another added: “Got to start.”
A third fan also wrote: “What a talent.”
Meanwhile, one more said: “Kid’s a joke. Has to start today.”

Mainoo’s goal comes after he sent United fans into meltdown with a separate training clip on Friday.
A stunning turn left Joe Gomez for dead during another small-sided game drill during preparations for the match against Slovakia.
Gareth Southgate is expected to start Mainoo in midfield for the last 16 encounter following his impressive display off the bench last time out.
Mainoo replaced Gallagher at half-time against Slovenia on Tuesday, partnering Declan Rice in the England midfield.
He also made a four-minute cameo in the opening match against Serbia, which England won 1-0.
Despite his goal in training, Mainoo is yet to score in five senior international caps since making his debut in March.
However, he has scored five goals in 35 appearances for United.
All five have come with his right foot, with the most recent against Manchester City in the FA Cup final.
