Junior Firpo has sung the praises of Leeds teammate Wlly Gnonto.

Gnonto has shown just how dangerous he can be with the ball at his feet on numerous occasions for the Whites this season. Looking to take on his man at will, the Italian has been a welcome addition to an already talented group of attacking options at Leeds.

"I think nobody expected it from him," Firpo said when asked how good Gnonto has been so far.

"He was just a shy guy, didn't talk too much - a little bit shy in training.

"But as soon as he went on the pitch he was unbelievable from day one. It's not normal how he plays, how mature he is. I am really happy for him as he is such a good guy."
