Former FC Zurich winger Willy Gnonto is excited about his move to Leeds United.
The Leeds hierarchy are understood to have accelerated their plans to bring in the 18-year-old, with the original plan to sign the striker next January. The deadline day move for Bamba Dieng came as a late blow to the Whites and Gnonto was a late addition.
Speaking to Leeds' website, he said: "It was a little bit strange but I'm very happy to be here. I think this is a great club and I can't wait to see all the fans and be at Elland Road - hopefully soon.
"I was very proud and my family too, because Leeds United is and incredible club with a great history. Playing in the Premier League is something that I wanted. I think it's something that'll drive me to work even more. I can't wait to see all the fans. I can't wait to play and help the team.
"I can give my best with this game. I think it's a game with a lot of power, a lot of speed and it's good for me because I think I'm also this type of player."
