Jermaine Beckford raves about Leeds United striker Eddie Nketiah

Jermaine Beckford has showered praise on Eddie Nketiah for his performance against Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship clash on Saturday.

Nketiah came on as a substitute against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday at Hillsborough. Leeds missed a golden opportunity to move to the top of the table as the match ended in a 0-0 draw.

The 20-year-old, who joined Leeds during the summer on loan from Arsenal, has impressed heavily in cameo roles for the club.

While many fans have urged Marcelo Bielsa to start him, the Argentine has stuck with Patrick Bamford as his first-choice striker.
