A lot of Leeds United fans have replied to a tweet from Jean-Kevin Augustin, after the Whites announced that the South Stand at Elland Road would be named in honour of the late Norman Hunter.
Hunter sadly passed away last week, and on Thursday morning, Leeds announced that they would be naming a stand after him.
This went down brilliantly with a lot of Leeds fans and also led to Augustin posting about it.
The 22-year-old tweeted: “Can’t wait to score in front of it,” which attracted a lot of attention from these Leeds fans.
Are you excited to see Augustin when football returns?

What do we think?
This is a very kind gesture from the Whites to honour Hunter in that way, and it is also good to see Augustin commenting on it.
The Frenchman has not scored for Leeds since he joined on loan from RB Leipzig, but to be fair to him, he has only featured for 48 minutes.
However, judging by some of these replies, many Leeds fans are keen to see Augustin score for the Whites in front of the new Norman Hunter South Stand when football resumes.
