Opportunity will knock for one Leeds United player when Manchester City visit Elland Road two weeks today. Tyler Adams’s suspension guarantees at least one slot from the last competitive match is up for grabs when the Premier League reconvenes.
Adam Forshaw might be the smart-money bet for picking out Marc Roca’s partner when the champions visit, but his injury record and limited minutes this season don’t make it a foregone conclusion. The likes of Mateusz Klich, Sam Greenwood and Darko Gyabi are waiting in the wings too.
Gyabi, not even 19 until February, was quickly promoted from the under-21 ranks and into the senior fold as Jesse Marsch took the cream of that crop under his wing. Along with Sonny Perkins, Mateo Joseph and Archie Gray, Gyabi’s potential has been acknowledged by the coaching staff.
