Jesse Marsch’s private talks with Darko Gyabi have painted a clear picture for the midfielder’s route into Leeds United’s first team. The 18-year-old only arrived from Manchester City in the summer, but has quickly made it impossible for the head coach to keep him in the under-21s.
While Tyler Adams, Marc Roca, Adam Forshaw, Mateusz Klich and Sam Greenwood may seem like a long line Gyabi needs to hack through, he has been happy with what he’s learned so far from Marsch. He is getting the attention he wants from the American.
”It’s been good [working under Marsch],” he said. “I’m learning a lot off the ball, on the ball, the way he wants the team to play.”
