  • He was asked in an interview if he was happy playing as an attacking midfielder.



    "No. In the years to come that might be somewhere I could play, but right now, I'm definitely a centre-forward. I'm after more goals," Wayne said.



    "When you play as a target man, you have to stay up front and help the team out by holding the ball up and waiting for support. That all comes with experience. It's a good role for me to play and hopefully I can continue doing well there."
