A lot of Leeds United fans have flocked to a post from their club, showing a message Illan Meslier has sent to a young Leeds fan.
Footage emerged earlier in the week of a young Leeds fan practising his goalkeeping in the garden while self-isolating.
This led to Juan Mata inviting the kid to practice with him once this viral outbreak is over, but now Meslier has sent a direct message, and he has invited Nate to come to Thorp Arch and train with him.
This has gone down brilliantly with these Leeds fans who love this gesture from Meslier.
? Hi Nate, quick message from @MeslierIllan! See you soon! #ALAW pic.twitter.com/sEl9yRJUP6

Illan is rapidly and deservedly becoming a cult hero. If he stays with us, the future is more than bright.

Other Whites supporters, though, are surprised by the Frenchman’s voice.
Class and that voice ???

Who else is shocked by the surprisingly soothing sound of our number ones voice? ??

Not just a safe pair of hands, man has a pair of lungs on him too ?

This is quite literally the exact opposite of what I expected our Meslier to sound like ?

What do we think?
We also found Meslier’s voice to be unusually deep, and we are not surprised that this has attracted the attention of many Whites fans.
Who would you rather train with?
Meslier
Mata
However, we think that Meslier’s gesture deserves the most attention, and what he has offered to do is very kind.
This means that, if they stick to their word, Nate will be able to train with both Mata and Meslier once this viral outbreak is over.
We hope that he can do both.
