Archie Gray reveals hilarious encounter with Leeds United support on his return to city centre

Archie Gray may not have been in the Leeds United first team long enough to be established as a club great, but for his contributions last season, his family history with the club and the fact he's now a Premier League player, you'd expect he'd be fairly recognisable. It turns out, maybe not.

The 18-year-old Tottenham Hotspur player has revealed a funny story from his recent visit home to Leeds when he was mistaken by Leeds United supporters for his younger brother Harry. Archie left Elland Road in the summer, bringing an end to his nine year association with the football club after join Leeds' Under-9s team.

Younger brother Harry is hoping to follow in Archie's footsteps by making a similar breakthrough into the first team, although that plan is currently derailed by an injury which has kept him sidelined since threatening a first team squad breakthrough in pre-season. No doubt frustrated by his injury situation, Harry will be buoyed to learn of brother Archie's recent run-in with supporters, an incident Archie had not told him about.

Speaking to Tottenham's YouTube channel, Archie explained; "I haven’t told him this actually, it was quite funny. I went back to Leeds a few weeks ago, I went to the city centre. I think I was with Ethan Ampadu.

“Some Leeds fans came up to him and said, Ethan, can I get a photo and I was just stood there. They were like, ‘oh hi Harry’. And I was like, ‘there’s no way these kids have just called me Harry! ‘ I didn’t know what to think. It was an experience.”

It's always a bit embarrassing being mistaken for a sibling, but no doubt worse when you're a Premier League footballer and England Under-21 international.
