Sam Greenwood arrived at Leeds United in the summer of 20/21, as Victor Orta aggressively recruited for the U23 team to provide some top young prospects behind the first-team. The club were preparing for their first season in the Premier League in 16 years and Greenwood joined alongside Crysencio Summerville, Cody Drameh and Joe Gelhardt.
None of those players had an impact on the first-team last season but all four have made Premier League debuts this term. However, in the case of Greenwood, he has always been in the shadow of Gelhardt during his time at the club.
The former Arsenal man has impressed in PL2, regularly scoring excellent goals, including a string of free-kicks in his first season. The two forwards have gone toe-to-toe in the U23 goalscoring charts, but it's Gelhardt who has been the one clamoured for in the first-team and the Liverpudlian has had the lion's share of Premier League minutes. He's had an excellent return from those as well, scoring twice, assisting once and winning two penalties in the space of only 455 minutes.
