Leeds United fans have urged Kun Temenuzhkov to push for the first-team on Twitter after the player shared a message on the social media network.
Happy to sign new contract with @LUFC #MOT pic.twitter.com/HOgALOAazc

The 19-year-old, who was once part of the famed La Masia academy set-up at Barcelona, inked new terms with the Elland Road outfit that will see him stay at the club for the “foreseeable future”.
Temenuzhkov is thought to be highly-rated in Yorkshire and made his debut for Marcelo Bielsa’s side in their FA Cup defeat to Queens Park Rangers last season – although he did only manage to play 11 minutes of action (Transfermarkt).
A Bulgaria Under-21 international, the teenager was touted to be one of the next generation’s sheer talents by a Guardian report in 2017.
Upon learning the news of his new deal, many of the Leeds faithful were full of encouraging words and have urged him to try and become the latest young talent to break into Bielsa’s first-team set-up.
Here are just some of their reactions to his message…
Congrats Kun… Keep working hard and 1st team chance will come #MOT #lufcfamily
