LONDON, Dec 14 (Reuters) - Leeds United boss Daniel Farke hailed Dominic Calvert-Lewin as one of the leading strikers in the country after the Englishman netted his fourth goal in four games in a tight 1-1 draw at Brentford on Sunday.

Calvert-Lewin, who has 11 England caps but hasn't played for the national team since 2021, headed in substitute Willy Gnonto's cross for his fifth goal of the season eight minutes from time to cancel out Jordan Henderson's goal for the hosts.
