Wolverhampton Wanderers fans have gushed over goal footage of Theo Corbeanu that was posted to the club’s academy Twitter account.
Earlier in the week, the Old Gold posted footage of a goal scored by the young Romanian bagging against Stoke City after some impressive pressing (as per Wolves Academy), which had fans gushing.
Theo Corbeanu chasing down lost causes, getting rewarded.

Should Nuno Espirito Santo deploy a full academy side in the cup replay at Manchester United?No, people could be paying £55 to goYes, our sights are set on bigger things |
So far this term, the versatile forward has scored three goals in 11 games for the young Wolves (per Transfermarkt), having played the majority of the season for the Under-18s as a right-winger.
With the intent clear from the Molineux club that they believe in the youth academy and player promotion (via Express and Star), Corbeanu could be one to watch for the future.

Winds me up when strikers never chase down lost causes. Keepers are full of mistakes.

What do we think?
If there has been one thing that is clear this season, it is that Nuno Espirito Santo gives youth a chance when there is call for it (via Express and Star).
That should act as a great motivation for the youngsters in the Under-18 and Under-23 set up, as they can have a real chance of first-team football with the right mix of talent and hard work.
