Leeds United youngster Ronaldo Vieira has impressed this season.

When speaking to reporters, Whites star Liam Bridcutt raved about his teammate Ronaldo Vieira, and tipped the youngster to achieve great things within the game, as quoted by Radio Yorkshire journalist Derek Clark via his official Twitter account.

The 18-year-old has taken the Leed’s first-team by storm this season, making 18 Championship appearances for Garry Monk’s men, and impressing with a succession of superb displays in the middle of the park which have defied his tender years.

The West Yorkshire outfit have enjoyed a wonderful first half of the season, and currently sit in third position in the Championship table.

And Garry Monk deserves so much credit for having the courage to blood so many youngsters into his first-team, when the pressure on him to achieve instant results was so intense.
