Leeds United striker Chris Wood is playing well at the moment.

Former Everton and Manchester City winger Peter Beagrie suggested on Sky Sports 1 last Friday evening (January 13, 2017) a simple reason behind the good form of Leeds United striker Chris Wood this season.

Wood is playing well at the moment and is scoring goals for fun in the Championship.

The 25-year-old striker has scored 14 goals and created 23 chances in 25 Championship matches for Leeds so far this season.

The latest goal for the New Zealand international came last week during a 1-0 victory over Derby County at Elland Road in the league.

Former Everton and City winger Peter Beagrie has suggested a simple reason behind the form of Wood.

“I think the key to that is he is enjoying his football,” said Beagrie when asked why Wood is playing so well on Sky Sports 1 last Friday evening (January 13, 2017) before the Championship match between Leeds and Derby.

Wood has played for a number of clubs in his career on loan, but it seems that he has finally found a ‘home’ at Leeds.

The former West Bromwich Albion and Leicester City striker has established himself as an important player for the Whites, who are in the running for the playoffs this season.

Interestingly, Wood has been linked with Premier League club West Ham United and Sunderland.

According to ESPN, the Hammers and the Black Cats are looking at the striker, who is reportedly valued at £15 million by Leeds.
