Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink is stunned at how well Wilfried Gnonto has adapted to life at Elland Road. Leeds United stumped up just £5million to lure the 19-year-old from FC Zurich last summer.
It is easy to forget that Gnonto has only made eight Premier League appearances. An injury crisis forced Jesse Marsch to throw the youngster an opportunity earlier than expected at the back end of last year - and he took the chance with both hands.
Several electrifying performances have elevated Gnonto’s status to one of the first names on the team sheet. The meagre fee paid to Zurich now looks like a steal for a player with eight caps for Italy.
