Leeds United decided to re-name their South Stand in honour of club legend Norman Hunter after he sadly passed away last week.
Unsurprisingly, this was a decision that went down extremely well with the support, as they were delighted to see the Whites pay tribute to someone who played such a key role in their history. And, it prompted a comment from Jean-Kevin Augustin yesterday, with the Frenchman stating on Twitter that he can’t wait to get his first goal in front of the newly named stand.
Can't wait to score in front of it 💙💛 https://t.co/LUPbk2FzRG

The striker has endured a tough start to his Leeds career, with fitness issues restricting him to just three substitute appearances since his arrival in January and he is yet to get off the mark. However, the former PSG man has been showing videos of his workouts on Twitter as he looks to make a positive impression when the season does resume.
Here we look at some of the comments to his message…
Yes big Kev
