West Brom teen Jonathan Leko was delighted with his first start in defeat to West Ham.

Exciting winger Leko, a product of Albion's academy, revealed the bizarre way he learned he was going to become the first player born in 1999 to start a Premier League game.

“I was in the toilet and the gaffer called me out and said, 'You're starting' and I was like, 'What!?'. But I was ready to go and was ready to start.

“I liked it, it was a bit of a surprise. It was great to play in front of the home fans – in the first half when I crossed it I could hear them screaming my name. It makes you feel good and gets you excited."
