Leeds fans are still not quite sure what to make of Caleb Ekuban, after the striker grabbed his first league goal for the club on Friday.
Good Friday was a great Friday for Leeds fans, as their side finally stopped their torrid run of form with a 2-1 win over Bolton.
Fan favourite Pablo Hernandez was on the scoresheet yet again, but the opening goal came from struggling striker Caleb Ekuban. Ekuban hadn’t yet scored a league goal for the club, despite grabbing 17 goals in Albania last season.
Ekuban has taken plenty of flak from fans, and that may continue even with the goal, as he missed two golden opportunities to add to his tally. Still, the Ghanaian forward sounds in high spirits.
“As a striker we all know the more chances you have the more probability you have to score,” Ekuban said.

“I’m getting my confidence and I’m really happy because my team-mates are backing me a lot.
“That’s the most important part of the game. The more chances I have the more goals I can have. We are getting closer and knowing each other better now.”
Leeds fans may disagree with the idea that the more chances the 24 year-old gets the more he will score, as it seems the more chances he gets the more he misses. Ekuban says he will improve in time.
“The more you play the more you become better in this league.”
Fans have been reacting to the comments on Twitter, and it seems most of them are still unconvinced by the 24 year-old….
