Leeds United have a rich history of producing talent from their Thorp Arch academy.

Denis Irwin, Kalvin Phillips and Gary Speed are notable examples whilst Archie Gray is a more recent one, having enjoyed an outstanding breakthrough season last term before his £40m switch to Tottenham Hotspur.

Now, it seems Leeds have another star emerging through the ranks and he’s showing the promise to one day play for England at senior level…

Harry Gray could play for England one day

Harry Gray, younger brother of Archie, is the next rising star coming through Leeds’ academy.

The 15-year-old striker, who’s been labelled a ‘wonderkid’ (Passion4FM), featured in pre-season for Daniel Farke’s men, amplifying just how highly rated he is among coaches.

Gray netted eight times in 11 outings in the under-18s Premier League last term and his great uncle Eddie Gray, formerly of Leeds of course, has high hopes for him.

“Archie has grown up watching all the English boys playing and then playing with a lot of English boys in the youth teams. It’s the same with his brother, Harry. He’ll be a good player as well,” the 76-year-old told the Daily Record.

The 2008-born forward has represented England at youth level and if he continues his current trajectory, there’s a real chance he could ply his trade with the seniors one day.

Charlie Crew another bright talent at Leeds

Charlie Crew is another bright talent in Leeds’ academy and is already representing Wales’ under-21s at the age of 18.

The defensive midfielder is yet to make his debut for The Whites but he’s been named a substitute in four of their five Championship fixtures so far this term.
