Some Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to Lewis Cook’s goal this afternoon.

Cook scored a stunning goal for Bournemouth in their 4-2 victory over Reading at home in the Championship today.

The 23-year-old midfielder found the back of the net in the 77th minute with a lovely right-footed drive.

It was the England international’s first league goal for the Cherries and helped them pick up all three points from the encounter.

The youngster came through the Leeds academy and moved to Bournemouth in the summer of 2016 for a transfer fee reported by The Daily Star to be worth £6 million.

According to a report in The Daily Star in August, Leeds wanted to sign the 23-year-old from Bournemouth in the summer of 2020.

It was reported that the West Yorkshire club were planning to make a bid of £15 million for the Englishman, but no move materialised in the end.
