Leeds United forward Willy Gnonto has signed a new four-year contract to run until the summer of 2028.
The Italy international, 20, joined Leeds from Swiss club FC Zurich in 2022 and has made 76 appearances for the Elland Road club, scoring 14 goals.
He started last season's play-off final which Leeds lost 1-0 to Southampton and all three Championship games so far in this campaign.
"I'm really happy for this extension," Gnonto told the club's website. "It's been, since the start, I can say, my second home. I really enjoyed being here and with the ambition in the club, I see my future here.
"I feel like I can bring many things to the table. I know my qualities, of course and I know my character. So I try to give my best every time and I feel like everyone can see it."
Gnonto became Italy's youngest goalscorer, aged only 18, when he netted against Germany in a Nations League match in June 2022.
