Leeds United winger Wilfried Gnonto has been named on a list of the '20 most promising young players' in Europe by Spanish outlet Sport.
Gnonto has come out in 17th place in a list which also features Leeds target and AZ Alkmaar left-back Milos Kerkez (No. 7); Borussia Dortmund midfielder and England international Jude Bellingham (No. 2), and Barcelona and Spain star Gavi (No. 1).
The 19-year-old joined Leeds from FC Zurich on transfer deadline day in September 2022 for a fee of just over £4 million.

Jesse Marsch was initially reluctant to throw him into the action, but Gnonto quickly established himself as a key attacking threat once he was presented with his first team bow in October.
Gnonto arrived at Elland Road as Italy's youngest ever goal scorer, and has marked his debut season in England with four goals and three assists in 24 appearances across all competitions.
However, the Italian international has struggled for minutes since Javi Gracia's arrival, which has been a source of frustration for Leeds supporters.
The teenager has started just twice in the Premier League and amassed only 276 minutes of action across all competitions under Gracia.
Gracia revealed that Gnonto had been struggling with an ankle injury which he sustained on international duty in March, but confirmed that the winger was fully fit last week.
But Gracia came under criticism for leaving Gnonto on the bench, and not calling upon him once Luis Sinisterra was forced off inside 31 minutes with a knock in the 1-1 draw against Leicester City on Tuesday night.
