Samu Saiz has been outstanding for Leeds United this season.
Caleb Ekuban has told The Yorkshire Evening Post that Leeds United team-mate Samu Saiz can get even better for the Whites this season.
The Spanish midfielder has been a revelation for Leeds following his £3.1 million move from Huesca in the summer and scored his fifth goal for the club in Saturday’s 2-0 win at Oakwell.
In doing so, the former Real Madrid B man now has nine goals and four assists in all competitions. He has had a direct hand in 13 of United’s goals this season – four more than any other player.
And worryingly for the Yorkshire club’s promotion rivals, Ekuban says that he is only warming up.
The Leeds striker told The Yorkshire Evening Post: “He can be even better
“He is really a good player. You can see he is the one that is keeping the job up front and I hope he can continue in this way.”
The prospect of Saiz getting even better is exciting for Leeds fans and they’ll be hoping he can recreate his magic at Elland Road on Saturday as Aston Villa come to town.
Spare a thought for Egzjan Alioski, who isn’t quite getting the same level of positive press, but the Macedonia international also has five Championship goals for the Whites – four of which have come in his last five league outings.
