Speaking about the young striker and what he has to offer alongside Jesse Marsch, Hatchard, while reporting for Sky Sports, said: “At Hoffenheim, he’s had a few games where he hasn’t been able to play. The defenders think they have him caged on the touchline and he’s going to go through them and make something happen.
“It’s still raw, it’s not the finished article, but I think it would be a perfect fit for Leeds.”
