Nketiah - I'm privileged to learn from Auba

Eddie Nketiah has hailed the influence of Pierre-Emerick Auabmeyang and says it is "a privilege" to play alongside the Gabon international.

Our young forward made his first Premier League start in the win against Newcastle United and discussed the match afterwards with the media.

This is what he told them:

on his first Premier League start…
It was a great feeling to get back out there, I’ve been working really hard in the chances I’ve had in training to get this chance so it’s nice. I felt I did well and I came close to scoring when it hit the crossbar, but the important thing is the three points and I think it was a brilliant result for the team.
