Manchester City supporters have taken to social media to praise 18-year-old forward Jayden Braaf after the Dutch youngster bagged his first goal for Udinese since joining the Serie A side on loan.
The former PSV academy player came off the bench to wrap up the three points for Udinese in a 4-2 win against Benevento with a wonderfully well-worked goal inside the penalty area, putting the Udine-based club 11 points above the relegation zone with five games of the Serie A season left to play.
Braaf is highly rated amongst City, with Dutch outlet Voetbalzone hailing the teenager as ‘ the new Jadon Sancho’ following his move from Holland to the Manchester-based club, and his first goal in professional football was met with plenty of praise from supporters on social media, who were impressed with how well taken the attacker’s strike was.
Here’s what some City fans had to say about Braaf’s goal on Twitter…

Braaf has had to be patient to get first-team opportunities for Udinese, with the Dutchman making just one start for the Italian side since joining on-loan in January.
