Rio Ferdinand has admitted he is 'salivating' over Aston Villa wonderkid Jacob Ramsey after a sparkling performance against Leeds.
The Villa midfielder, 20, scored twice in a 3-3 Premier League draw against Marcelo Bielsa's side on Wednesday, winning praise from his manager Steven Gerrard.
And Ferdinand told BT Sport he agreed with Gerrard regarding Ramsey's abundant potential to become a superstar.
He said: '(Gerrard)'s not wrong, he's not far off. The glimpses he's showing us at the moment, for a kid so young, with the inexperience he's got, the lack of exposure at this level, is beautiful to see.
