Dan Gosling (born 2 February 1990) is an English footballer who plays for Plymouth Argyle. He is the first ever player born in the 1990s to represent the first team, and the fourth youngest player to represent the club.
Gosling came through the Plymouth Argyle youth ranks and is now a full squad member. He made his professional debut, (aged 16 years and 310 days) on December 9, 2006 against Hull City, coming on as a first-half substitute for injured Captain Paul Wotton. Gosling's full debut came on New Year's Day 2007 against Southampton at Home Park. He proved his versatility in a solid performance, by moving from right-midfield to right-back after an early injury to defender Mathias Kouo-Doumbe.
Gosling is a regular in the reserve team, and his impressive performances were noticed by manager Ian Holloway. He recently trained for a week with Premiership club Chelsea [1] along with team-mates Luke Summerfield and Scott Sinclair, though Holloway has said that the experience is "not about selling him". [2] The same form has earned him a call-up to the England Under-17s squad for the UEFA European U17 Championship in Bosnia at the end of March 2007. [3]
