As we know, the virus has impacted people across the globe, with over two million confirmed cases and thousands of deaths. And, the Yorkshire Evening Post have revealed that McKinstry’s granddad was suffering but he has thankfully beaten it after help from NHS staff in Glasgow.

Given that, the report explained how the Whites midfielder wanted to say thank you, with McKinstry sending care packages that included food, drink and he also sent money that paid for those working on a night shift to have pizza.

Unsurprisingly, Leeds fans were delighted to see the act of generosity from the 17-year-old, who only joined the club from Motherwell last season, particularly given the criticism that footballers have faced from key figures over the past few weeks.
Here we look at some of the comments from the Whites fans towards the exciting youngster…
