Ross Barkley praises Lucas Digne on Twitter after Everton win vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Ross Barkley has showered praise on Everton defender Lucas Digne after the Toffees earned a 2-1 victory against Wolves on Tuesday night in the Premier League.

Digne provided the assist for Alex Iwobi to give Everton an early lead against Wolves. The home side restored parity in the 14th minute through Ruben Neves.

In the 77th minute, Michael Keane scored the winner with a header converting Andre Gomes’ teasing cross from the left.

Barkley, the former Everton attacking midfielder, was particularly impressed with French full-back and hailed him as ‘wand of a left foot’.
