Leeds United winger Jack Harrison has raved about his teammate Raphinha on the Premier League’s YouTube channel.

Harrison, on loan from Manchester City, has outlined Raphinha’s qualities and attributes and has spoken highly of him.

The Englishman said about Raphinha on the Premier League’s YouTube channel: “He is really tricky on the wings, he can get into really good positions, his decision-making is really good especially for a winger and he is able to create a lot.”

Important player for Leeds United

Raphinha joined Leeds in the summer of 2020 and has taken to the Premier League like a duck to water.

The Brazilian winger scores goals and creates chances, and the 24-year-old is a big reason why Leeds are doing so well in the Premier League at the moment.

The former Rennes star has made 21 starts and three substitute appearances in the Premier League for Leeds so far this season, scoring six goals and providing five assists in the process, according to WhoScored.

What is remarkable about Raphinha is that he helps out defensively as well and is not a player who does not track back when he has to.

The 24-year-old is full of energy, and his style of play fits Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa’s system perfectly.

Raphinha could end up winning the Player of the Year award for Leeds.
