Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch has called on supporters to "be more respectful" and find a way to modify a recent chant about Willy Gnonto that has become popular at Elland Road.
Gnonto has fast become a crowd favourite at the Leeds following his arrival over the summer. The Italian forward has featured in the Whites' last six league matches, scoring his first goal for the club in a 2-2 draw against West Ham last week.
Having a chant is often a hallmark of a player's popularity, but Leeds fans' latest song from the terraces has seen anti-racism group Kickitout release a statement on the issue. Sung to the tune of 'La Bamba', Kickitout and many supporters believe the lyrics contain a racial stereotype regarding the size of his manhood.
