According to The Sun, Gibbs-White posted a video after receiving his England call-up, which prompted fans to jokingly suggest he should continue his holiday.

He was not originally in Tuchel's England squad but was called up at the last minute following Cole Palmer's withdrawal.

Gibbs-White was on holiday with his family when he received the call-up and had to leave immediately. Gibbs-White and his fiancée, Brittany De Villiers, have two young children, and Brittany took the situation in stride by filming a video.

In the video, the couple recreated the song "Gotta Go My Own Way" from High School Musical 2. Gibbs-White lip-synced to Vanessa Hudgens' part, waving and saying: "I gotta go my own way." "I have to leave, but I will miss you."

Brittany captioned it: "When he gets an emergency call-up for the England national team two hours into a family holiday." She then added a caption with a laughing emoji: "He was obviously in a good mood, otherwise he would never have made this video with me."

The video quickly gained over 100,000 likes, but some fans also playfully teased Gibbs-White.

One fan wrote: "He should be sent straight back to finish his holiday." Another commented: "So funny, so good, haha." A third joked: "Yeah… he can come out of my FPL team now." Someone else added: "Tuchel will see this and definitely send him back."

Gibbs-White previously missed the World Cup and was not included in Tuchel's original squad this time, so he will be eager to impress the England manager.

England face Spain at Wembley this Saturday, and Gibbs-White is expected to add to his six England caps. England then play the Czech Republic and travel to Croatia, with less than three weeks before club football resumes.

Gibbs-White has reportedly attracted interest from Bayern Munich. The playmaker has only 12 months left on his contract at the end of the season, and sources suggest he is high on the German record champions' transfer list.

If England captain Harry Kane extends his contract at Bayern Munich, this potential transfer could also make Gibbs-White Kane's club teammate.
