The Wolves youngster looks to be a natural in front of goal.

Just typical. Wolves go without their star striker for over a year and no sooner does he make his return a rival emerges for his place in the team.

Nouha Dicko made his long-awaited comeback in last weekend’s defeat to Norwich City and looks set to feature in the upcoming West Midlands derby against Aston Villa.

But the Frenchman may find his position under threat from the most unlikeliest of sources, if the following England training video is anything to go by.

Wolves' Dominic Iorfa

Wolves defender Dominic Iorfa is fast approaching 100 career appearances, but is yet to score a single goal for club or country.

On this evidence however, the promising 21-year-old has perhaps been playing out of position.

Iorfa’s hidden talent should come as little surprise really, given that his father – also named Dominic – was a Nigerian international striker in the late 1980s and 1990s.

Iorfa’s Wolves teammates Kortney Hause and Cameron Bortwick-Jackson (on loan from Manchester United) did not make Aidy Boothroyd’s Three Lions squad on this occasion.
