Leeds United fans are in high spirits after their loanee striker Caleb Ekuban scored for Trabzonspor against Galatasaray on Saturday.
Ekuban made the move to Trabzonspor on a season-long loan late last month. The Black Sea based club do have the option of making the deal permanent next summer.
The 24-year-old got off to a good start with a debut goal over the weekend and a section of Leeds fans on Twitter are absolutely loving it.

I’ll take Ekuban being Ekuban all last season, just so he could go out on loan to score against Galatasaray. #LUFC https://t.co/tRNIagp4IS
