Jesse Marsch couldn’t be happier with the way Wilfried Gnonto continues to settle into his Leeds United line-up. Gnonto only made his debut for the Whites in October, in the win over Liverpool at Anfield, but he has already established himself as one of the brightest talents in the squad and his career is only moving in one direction.
The forward bagged his first goal last time out in the Premier League, finishing with aplomb against West Ham United after getting himself on the end the move he started at Elland Road. That was the 19-year-old’s fourth league start for the club and given his current form, he won’t be relinquishing his spot in United’s XI any time soon.
Marsch has seen and worked with a host of young talent throughout his coaching career, with Erling Haaland the being most prominent. Therefore, he knows what extraordinary potential looks like and that’s certainly what Gnonto seems to possess.
