Whenever Phil Foden visits his parents, he often stops to look in a cabinet at their house displaying all the medals and trophies he has won in his brief but already-sparkling soccer career.
Along with a Premier League winner's medal, his most cherished item is the medal he received in 2017 for winning the under-17 World Cup with England.
Three years later, Foden is embarking on a journey with his country's senior team - no longer that outrageously talented kid tipped for greatness but now a fully fledged member of one of the top teams in Europe.
"I want to keep the shirt and play for England for many years," the 20-year-old Manchester City midfielder said during his first week of training with the national team.
His confidence is high, and no wonder.
By the end of last season, Foden had gained the trust of City manager Pep Guardiola to such an extent that he was deployed as a false nine in the team's biggest game of the season - against Real Madrid in the last 16 of the Champions League.
In his breakthrough season at City, he also played on the left and right wing, and occasionally dropped into his preferred position of attacking central midfield.
Feeling fresh!! @England
