Leeds United's latest breakout star pays ultimate compliment to club's away fans as Whites await Norwich City
Leeds United's latest breakout star has paid a glowing compliment to his club's away fans as the Whites await another long trek to Norwich City.
Academy star Cody Drameh was handed his first team debut by starting Tuesday night's fourth round Carabao Cup clash at Arsenal in which the 19-year-old right back impressed in playing the full duration of a 2-0 defeat.
Leeds were cheered on by 5,200 fans in the Emirates Stadium away end and Drameh says the support of the best traveling fans in the country gives him goosebumps, particularly when belting out club anthem Marching On Together.
United will be back on their travels on Sunday for their latest Premier League assignment against Norwich in Norfolk.
"I just want to say thank you to the away supporters," said Drameh to the BBC.
"They are class. Everywhere we go, they follow us to like Brighton, the furthest places you can imagine.
"They are just cheering and I think they out-sing literally every crowd they come to, every away game, always singing.
"Marching on Together is just so crazy to hear, it gives me goosebumps so just thank you to them really."
