Leeds United midfielder Ethan Ampadu has been named our Socios Player of the Month, after a string of fine performances  throughout August.

Having joined from Chelsea in the previous month, Ampadu featured six times in August, playing every minute in both the league and cup competitions.

The midfielder made his debut in the opening 2-2 draw against Cardiff City, before playing a key role in the wins against Ipswich Town and Shrewsbury Town.

Having also turned 23 on Thursday, Ampadu thanked fans by saying: "It was never my aim to come here and win awards, it was more to settle in and see how I could help the team.

"I really appreciate the fans for all of their support and hopefully by them voting for me, it shows I'm going someway to repaying them for that support and I hope to do even more.

"Everyone here, the staff, players and all the fans, have made it really easy for me to settle in, so it's been an easy and smooth transition and I've really enjoyed it."
