The 20-year-old, from Stafford, was on hand to turn home Jake Bidwell’s cross shortly after the break – on his first Championship start for the Welsh side.

Gibbs-White is spending the season with the Swans, having penned a new contract until 2023 before heading out for valuable game time.

Meanwhile, Wolves’ under-23s kicked off their campaign with a 3-2 win against Burnley in PL2 Division Two.

Theo Corbeanu scored at Aggborough while Austin Samuels was at the double.
