NEWS UPDATE: Farke claims that the summer signing for Leeds performed “his best performance to destroy Leicester.”

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke believes Glen Kamara gave “his best performance in a White shirt” on Friday night.

The Elland Road outfit recorded a 1-0 win away at Leicester City to reduce the gap between the two sides to 11 points.

Leeds overcame their opponents thanks to a Georginio Rutter goal in the 58th minute of the match.

The 21-year-old converted from close range after Mads Hermansen palmed away Sam Byram’s header.

Most of the Leeds players were outstanding on the night, but Kamara was especially impressive, particularly in the opening 70 minutes.

The 28-year-old routinely broke up play, read the game well, sprayed great passes around and made late runs from deep as well.

After the game, Farke was asked by the Yorkshire Evening Post how important it was for Kamara to look after the ball in the first half.

“It was in general quite important that we have many periods where we dominate the ball and scare them,” he said.
