Wilfried Gnonto's arrival at Elland Road last summer and following success may well go down as Victor Orta's parting gift to Leeds United. A silver lining from an otherwise disappointing campaign.
The Whites' relegation to the Championship means a number of influential players will likely leave the club this summer and Gnonto is among that list. Serie A giants Juventus have been linked with a move for the rising star and have already made contact with the player's agent, according to recent reports.
Very few - including the Whites' recruitment staff - would have predicted a season quite like for Gnonto in his first year in English football. Leeds moved to sign the Italian international ahead of schedule and thrust him into the deep end after being impressed with his performances since moving from FC Zurich.
