Leeds United fans have seen a number of exciting young players emerge this season.
Since Garry Monk’s arrival at Elland Road, Leeds United have endured an incredible upheaval in form. Bringing in a number of excellent additions over the summer, such as Pontus Jansson, Kyle Bartley, Pablo Hernandez and Kemar Roofe, Garry Monk has complemented his side with new faces, both from other clubs and from the academy.
Known throughout the country as a club who consistently produce top young talent, it’s not a real surprise to see Leeds United once again producing good youth players. However, under Monk, these young players are coming to fruition much quicker than expected.
