Wilfried Gnonto has carried his outstanding Leeds United form straight into the World Cup, registering a goal and an assist in Italy's opening two group fixtures.

The 23-year-old has been one of the standout performers of the group stage so far, with his direct running and end product drawing praise from pundits across broadcasters covering the tournament.

Leeds fans will be hoping Gnonto returns from international duty in good condition, with pre-season preparations to follow shortly after the tournament concludes.
