Tyler Denton marked his debut with a stunning goal following his loan move from Leeds United.

While Tyler Denton’s Leeds career may have struggled to really ignite in recent times, his debut will undoubtedly live long in the memory of the majority of the Whites supporters as he marked it with a stunning goal to settle a cup tie at Luton.

The left-back curled a wonderful effort into the back of the net from outside the area with the outside of his boot to win the game – and he has somewhat repeated the trick following his loan exit from Elland Road.

Denton has joined former boss Steve Evans at Peterborough United for the coming campaign this past week, and he got the chance to introduce himself to the Posh supporters as he was picked to start their pre-season friendly against Bedford.

The 22-year-old opened the scoring with a superb effort from outside the box that found the top corner in a game that the League One side would go on to win 4-2.

The goal did not escape the attention of the Leeds supporters on social media. Leaving on loan seemed to make a lot of sense given that Denton had fallen below Tom Pearce in the pecking order and it would be little surprise if Marcelo Bielsa looked to sign a new left-sided defender this summer.

However, many have joked that it may be time to terminate the loan already as he clearly boasts a lot of potential and he may about to enjoy the kind of year away that leaves Leeds somewhat kicking themselves for letting him leave.
