Leeds United are delighted to announce that Willy Gnonto has been named the club’s Young Player of the Year for the 2024/25 campaign.

The 21-year-old has impressed throughout this term for the Whites, making 43 appearances in the Sky Bet Championship and scoring nine goals.

Gnonto opened his account for the season with a well-taken effort against Portsmouth on the opening day and would cause problems for defences throughout with his pace, trickery and creativity.

The Italian international has been in scintillating form to end a tremendous campaign for United, scoring in memorable Elland Road victories against Stoke City and Bristol City as promotion to the Premier League was secured.

Then, on the final day, the forward netted a timely equaliser against Plymouth Argyle before assisting Manor Solomon’s incredible last-gasp winner to crown Daniel Farke’s side as champions!

Elsewhere, the attacker has received recognition with his country, making three appearances for Italy’s Under-21s team to add to his international honours.

Congratulations Willy!
