Leeds United snapped up RB Leipzig striker Jean-Kevin Augustin on loan till the end of the season in January, and he finally made his bow during weekend’s loss at Nottingham Forest.

He also featured briefly during Tuesday’s 1-1 draw at Brentford, and will now hope to make an impact as Leeds look to return to winning ways when Bristol City come visiting on Saturday.

Patrick Bamford remains boss Marcelo Bielsa’s first-choice striker, and it will be interesting to see if Augustin can pip him to the starting berth anytime soon.
