Ex-England goalkeeper David James has compared Leeds United youngster Archie Gray's versatility to that of Manchester City defender John Stones.
The 53-cap stopper was selected by England at various major tournaments, famously becoming the oldest player to make his FIFA World Cup debut at 39 years old in 2010. In retirement, James has undertaken coaching, punditry and commentating engagements, the latter of which saw him call England's U21 European Championships qualifier against Azerbaijan last Friday.
Since October last year, Gray has predominantly featured at right-back in Daniel Farke's promotion-chasing Leeds side, a function the teenager is more than happy to carry out as long as it means he gets to spend time on the pitch.
