Leeds United defender Rasmus Kristensen has been really impressed by one new member of the squad.

The Danish defender was speaking to the club’s official website after their 1-1 draw with Everton.

Kristensen spoke about the Whites goal scorer Luis Sinisterra, and was seriously impressed: “I hope so (if Sinisterra’s goal will help him).

“We all have been watching Luis in pre-season and we know he’s quality.

“It was good for him he’s shown it in the cup and now on the big stage.

“It’s nice for him and it’s good for us.”

Sinisterra started his first league game for Leeds last night, after picking up an injury in pre-season.

The Colombian international scored the equaliser at the start of the second half.

His low shot from outside the box wrong-footed Jordan Pickford and slotted into the bottom corner.

Kristensen seriously impressed with Sinisterra

Leeds fans will already by excited by the brief glimpses they’ve seen of Sinisterra since his arrival.

He scored his first Leeds goal against Barnsley last week, and looked very exciting.

He only managed 64 minutes against Everton as Jesse Marsch manages his return to full fitness.

However, in-form forward Rodrigo was injured in the first half with a dislocated shoulder.

Jesse Marsch will therefore want all of his attacking options available quickly.

Kristensen was involved in one of the game’s key moments, heading a goal bound shot off the line.

It’s no surprise Kristensen was impressed by Sinisterra last night and he’ll be hoping the £21m winger keeps this level of performance up.
