Archie Gray’s age has almost ceased to amaze as a point of fascination, such is the quiet ease with which he has settled into life in the Leeds United first team.
The teenager was 17 years and 147 days old when he first stepped onto the pitch to play competitive football for the club of his father Andy, grandfather Frank and great uncle Eddie. It marked the continuation of a family tradition, following 17-year-old debuts for Andy and Eddie and Frank’s senior bow at 18.
Boss Daniel Farke was glowing in his praise of the precocious talent after the game, saying: “One thing is you can have an idea but the most important topic is that you have players who bring it on the pitch and for that I think yes, Archie was there with a terrific performance, especially against the ball, but also with the ball. I think he was quite energetic in several situations and to adapt that quick to this position, it says it all about him as a character and about his potential.
