Leeds fans have taken to Twitter to react after watching a 16-second video of Rodrigo de Paul showboating for Udinese.

The footage in question shows the 19-cap Argentina international burst past a defender with an impressive turn of pace.

De Paul then delivers a brilliant cross through the use of a rabona – a skill in which a player brings their strong foot round to where their weak foot should be.

You can see exactly what a rabona is below, in the impressive clip.

It’s no surprise that this has attracted Leeds fans – Victor Orta certainly knows how to pick them.

The club’s pursuit of De Paul dominated the headlines over the summer, and by the sounds of it, the saga isn’t over.

After he posted a tweet revealing his desire to join Leeds – which he quickly deleted – we wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up in Yorkshire this summer.

The Udinese No.10 and captain hasn’t let the transfer speculation affect him.
