He’s outscoring Piroe & Solomon: Leeds must regret selling outstanding star
Leeds United have been the home to countless attacking talents over the years, numerous of whom have captured the hearts of the fanbase for their goalscoring exploits.
Luciano Becchio joined the Whites back in 2008 from Spanish side Merida, arriving as an unknown quantity to many, but the gamble on his services certainly paid off given his form at Elland Road.
The Argentine notched a total of 76 goals in his 221 appearances over five years in Yorkshire, often being the shining light during what was a dark period for the club, even dropping into League One.
Jermaine Beckford starred alongside Becchio for a couple of years during the aforementioned period, scoring 71 times in 126 outings – with his most iconic moment coming against Manchester United in the FA Cup victory at Old Trafford.
However, fast-forward to the present day, Daniel Farke has his own crop of impressive attacking talents, including two who have caught the eye in recent outings.
