Manchester City youngster Rico Henry is happy studying senior teammate Joao Cancelo.
With Trent Alexander-Arnold at Liverpool and Reece James and Ben Chilwell at Chelsea, the full-back position is enjoying a golden age that 17-year-old Lewis is happy to see.
“It is really popular now. Especially at City, I like it because full-back is quite an important position,” he told the Manchester Evening News.
“You see it in the first team that Cancelo is pretty influential in that position. Maybe I wouldn’t enjoy it as much in another club but definitely at City I like it a lot because there is more involvement in the team.
“I mainly focus on myself because I’m the one who is playing. In a game, it’s not like I can copy them because it’s not realistic so I focus on myself but I definitely look at Cancelo because he plays in that full-back position where sometimes he moves into midfield as well, which is similar to what I do. I can see what he does, which helps, but it is mainly just myself.”
