A number of Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to express their delight after the club confirmed on their official website that Morten Spencer has signed his first professional contract with the Whites.

Spencer is one of a number of youngsters supporters are having to keep an eye on. The 17-year-old looks to be one of the brightest talents working with the under-18s.

The versatile midfielder has scored twice and provided three assists in the under-18 Premier League this season. He also scored in the superb 8-2 FA Youth Cup win over MK Dons last month.

And he has been rewarded for his encouraging form. Leeds have announced on their official website that the teenager has penned a professional deal at Elland Road.

The club confirmed that Spencer is set to stay until 2023.

The news has, unsurprisingly, gone down incredibly well amongst Leeds fans on social media.

Spencer looks to be one of the players who will set his sights on getting a chance for Mark Jackson’s under-23s in the coming months.

And from there, there is every opportunity for a player to really put themselves on Marcelo Bielsa’s radar – although it would be little surprise if he was already more than aware of Spencer’s potential.

With that in mind, here is how some of the fans have reacted to the announcement…
