Leeds United fans are finally starting to see the best out of Helder Costa in recent weeks and it could not come at a better time. 

The Portuguese winger has recently found some of his best form in a Leeds shirt as the Whites have embarked on a four-game winning streak. 

Costa struggled at the start of the campaign, seemingly falling short of Marcelo Bielsa’s rigorous fitness demands.

That is clearly no longer the case. Costa has played the full 90 minutes in Leeds’ last nine league fixtures and is finally sprinkling some of his stardust in the opposition third in the process. 

Whilst more goals and assists are still needed, it finally looks like Costa is living up the hefty price-tag Leeds have to pay for his services in the summer.

The 26-year-old is currently on loan at Elland Road, with Leeds having an obligation to buy him from Wolves at the end of the season. The fee involved, as reported by The Mirror, will be in the region of £15 million.

It was a transfer strategy to help Leeds alleviate any FFP worries but for a large part of the season, it appeared Leeds could be set to waste a chunk of money on the Portuguese wideman. 

But his recent run of form clearly suggests Leeds will not be regretting this deal in the summer, especially if Costa can help Leeds finally win promotion back to the Premier League.
