Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams has warned fellow Premier League clubs that Luis Sinisterra will be an "important player" for the Whites this season after he made a goalscoring full debut in Tuesday night's 1-1 draw against Everton.
Having shown flashes of ability in a, somewhat, underwhelming opening 45 minutes for the hosts, Sinisterra stepped up to net a well-placed strike and put Leeds in the driving seat to find a winning goal.
Whilst struggling Everton would manage to escape Elland Road with a point, the Colombian winger displayed the capabilities that convinced Leeds to pay Feyenoord more that £20 million for his services.

Fellow summer recruit Adams acknowledged post-match the scale of impact that Sinisterra can have on Leeds' campaign.
"It’s important for him to get minutes now, and you saw a little glimpse of what he’s capable to do and he’s going to be an important player for us going forward," Adams said.
The hosts were undoubtedly more likely to find a winning goal and came close through Joe Gelhardt. Though, Adams revealed how difficult it was to break down a team that appeared to be purposely wasting time.
"It is a little bit frustrating in the first half when they are trying to kill time, especially when we are trying to play a high intensity game, but again, it is important that we stayed mentally focused and to get the goal was important to us.
Nevertheless, Leeds remain unbeaten at Elland Road and it would be fair to say early expectations have been exceeded following last season's relegation battle. Adams even maintained his side are only going to get better.
He said: "I am happy, I think that it’s a learning process, we have a lot of new guys coming into a new league, trying to adapt but it’s important to pick up points early on in the season, but we’re only growing from here."
