Garry Monk is happy with what he has seen so far from Leeds United new boy Alfonso Pedraza.
Leeds snapped up Pedraza from La Liga outfit Villarreal on loan until the end of the season in the January transfer window, with a mandatory purchase option to kick in if the Whites win promotion to the Premier League.
The Spaniard made his debut in a defeat at Huddersfield Town, while he then started in last weekend's loss at home against Cardiff City. Pedraza was on the bench as Leeds returned to winning ways in midweek against Bristol City.
And Monk is happy with what he has seen from Pedraza so far, telling a press conference: "He has been great.
"He is an exciting talent, full of potential", Monk added.

The Leeds boss also praised his squad in general, saying: "The group are a pleasure to work with.
"It is always a really good environment to work in.
"I am enjoying the season and I am enjoying working with the players."
Leeds are in league action again this coming Saturday when they head to face Mick McCarthy's Ipswich Town at Portman Road.
The Whites, who sit fifth in the Championship table, are keen to nail down a playoff spot as quickly as possible, while they also still have faint hopes of reeling in the top two and pushing for automatic promotion.
