Rival boss issues glowing verdict of new Leeds United signing with Whites praise and prediction

Anthony started three of Bournemouth’s first four games of the season yet is now settling into a season-long loan at Leeds as part of the deal that has seen Luis Sinisterra depart for the Cherries, also on a season-long loan. The Cherries needed a deal sheet to get the late move for Sinisterra over the line and the Daily Echo have revealed that Anthony was at the Bournemouth team hotel and preparing for Saturday’s clash at Brentford as the move progressed.

Iraola has admitted that he felt his side would ultimately be stronger with the addition of Sinisterra but that the decision for Anthony to depart on loan ultimately rested with the player. But the swap was officially announced at midnight on transfer deadline day and Iraola has given a glowing reference to the new winger checking in at Elland Road – and the club he is now set to play for.
