Harrogate teen shines on Leeds United debut A 17-year-old from Harrogate starred on his senior debut for Leeds United yesterday (Sunday). Archie Gray played 90 minutes as Leeds drew 2-2 with Cardiff City in their opening game of the Championship season. The youngster, who went to St John Fisher High School in Harrogate, lined up in midfield for Daniel Farke’s side. And he has drawn praise from several key figures in the sport following his performance, including former Leeds striker Jermaine Beckford. He told Sky Sports:
"I thought he was incredible. Watching him play, you forget about his age, you forget he's only 17 years old. "When he first started training with the first-team, he was still doing his GCSEs!”Speaking about the teen, Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams wrote on his Instagram:
“Star in the making. Congrats little bro.”Gray signed a professional contract with Leeds United in March this year. Read more local stories from Your Harrogate here.
