Leeds United will look to offload out of favour winger Ian Poveda, Jesse Marsch has confirmed. Poveda isn’t currently part of Marsch’s first-team plans at Elland Road and therefore he could be set for a move away, either on loan or permanent, before the transfer window slams shut on September 1.
The 22-year-old has trained with the Whites’ senior group since the start of pre-season and the head coach has spoken highly of him on a couple of occasions. However, Poveda has been unable to convince Marsch that he deserves a spot in his side and he is still waiting to make his first appearance this campaign.
He failed to feature in any of Leeds’ five pre-season friendlies, either, with Marsch preferring to go in a different direction with his selection. As such, his future is up in the air at present and he could be one to leave West Yorkshire in the coming days.
