Leeds United fans on Twitter are tipping Mateusz Bogusz for very big things in the future.

The Whites rounded off their tour of Australia with a narrow 2-1 win over Western Sydney Wanderers.

And it was the 17-year-old midfielder who got Leeds on the scoresheet – and in fine fashion.

Jack Harrison galloped down the left-hand side before cutting back for the young Pole on the edge of the box, with Bogusz sweeping home with a wonderful first-time finish with his left foot.

It was an example of Bogusz’s technical ability and composure under pressure, and fans of the Elland Road club are very excited about him.

He joined Leeds in January but didn’t make any senior appearances under Marcelo Bielsa during the second half of last season, but his senior debut might not be far away.

Bogusz has conducted himself very, very well in pre-season and it’ll be interesting to see if Bielsa does use him in competitive outings from here on in.
