18-year-old Koumetio is also with the first-team squad and has enjoyed having Konate as a role model.

"They are big examples, not only Virgil but also Joel, Joe, Konate, also Rhys, Nat and Ben," Koumetio told the club's website.

"I'm learning from all of them, they are all different so you can pick some qualities off each of them. We are all happy to see them. They are great lads and also big, big players.

"Me and Konate, we speak a lot. I love him, he's a great man but also a great player. He's very good on the ball, attacking and defending. We are talking a lot. He's settled in perfectly."
