Joseph rated highly

Hay shared what he knows about the youngster.

“The one you would like to see get a bit🐼 more of a push 🥃is Joseph I think up front to see a bit more of him. He can be quite versatile and they think a lot of him and a lot of people think a lot of him, they think he’s a good player,” Hay said.

Exciting

Indeed, between Georginio Rutter, Crysencio Summerville and Willy Gnonto, Leeds have three incredible young attackers already making a first-team impact, and that’s before we eveℱn think about Joseph and the potential he possesses.

Leeds’ academꦬy can develop s🅘ome truly fantastic talents, and Joseph may well be the next star to come through Elland Road.
