Leeds United star Willy Gnonto may be known for "eating spaghetti and drinking Morretti," according to his adoring fans, but he had a light meal when visiting a Yorkshire Italian restaurant which has become a favourite among players.
The 19-year-old Italian winger dropped in to Tappino's in Westgate, Cleckheaton town centre, just a couple of days after earning man of the match in the White's FA Cup clash against Cardiff, on Friday, January 20.
Restaurant owner and fellow countryman Pino Bianco, 58, from Puglia, spoke of how much he "bonded" with the young star. Willy even brought a signed Leeds United shirt as a present for the restaurant boss.
