It came as very little surprise when Leeds United opted to loan out Hadi Sacko to Turkish outfit Ankaragücü during the January transfer window.

The French winger signed for the Whites in 2016 on loan from Sporting Lisbon, playing 38 games and scoring twice.

The Championship outfit had clearly seen something in Sacko as they signed him permanently in 2017.

After 14 appearances and several managerial changes, Sacko soon found himself way down the pecking order.

Marcelo Bielsa loaned him to Las Palmas for the first half of the current campaign. Having made only five appearances for the Spaniards, he was sent back to Leeds in January.

The Turkish Super Liga side are currently 15th in their division and signed Sacko to help them up the table.

It would appear that the 24-year-old has hit the ground running.

Yesterday saw Sacko net a scintillating goal during his home debut for his new club.

From 25-yards out the Leeds man curled an unstoppable effort high into the goal, handing Ankaragücü a 3-0 victory over Kasımpaşa.

Yorkshire Evening Post journalist, Phil Hay, retweeted a video of the stunning strike:

Leeds fans couldn’t quite believe what they had witnessed, given his sporadic form for the Whites.

They took to Twitter to react to Sacko’s piece of brilliance…
