Cody Drameh admitted he had to "rise" from his mental slump at the beginning of his loan at Cardiff City after a backlash from Leeds United fans affected him badly.
The right-back was crowned Cardiff City's player of the season and young player of the season at last Saturday's end-of-year awards ceremony, despite arriving at the club half-way through the campaign. However, few would say he was undeserving of the accolade, given the remarkable consistency of his performances since joining the Bluebirds in January, which has proved to be a stellar bit of business.
The transfer did cause a stir up in Yorkshire, though. Marcelo Bielsa wanted Drameh to stay and be a bit-part player in his squad as Leeds scrapped to avoid relegation to the Championship. The 20-year-old, though, wanted to get out and get games under his belt.
