Leeds United fans will love what Eddie Nketiah has done on Twitter

It has been somewhat of a strange season for Arsenal wonderkid Eddie Nketiah.

After impressing in pre-season - including goals against Bayern Munich as well as Fiorentina - he was allowed to leave on loan by then Gunners head coach Unai Emery.

And there was plenty of interest in the striker.

In the end, Leeds United won the race and Nketiah moved to Elland Road and was given the no.14 shirt.

But despite coming up with some important goals for Marcelo Bielsa's side in their attempt to seal a return to the Premier League following an over decade long absence, he couldn't overtake Patrick Bamford as the first-choice centre-forward.

As a result, his loan spell came to an end in January.

And since returning to the Emirates Stadium Nketiah has benefited from the change in management as he's been given several chance to impress under new head coach Mikel Arteta.

Although that's not to say the England U21 international didn't enjoy his time in Yorkshire.

In a 59-second video clip uploaded to his Twitter account, Nketiah included all the goals he's scored this season - and each time he found the net for the Whites made the cut.

Upon departing Leeds United at the beginning of 2020, Nketiah had a message for supporters.

Unfortunately, my time @LUFC has come to an end. It’s been an amazing experience and a privilege to play for such an amazing club. I would like to say a big thank you to my teammates, the coaching staff and the manager for making my time here an enjoyable one," he tweeted.

"Lastly, a big thank you to all the wonderful fans for taking to me so quickly. I wish the club all the best and I’m sure you’ll get to the promised land."
