Leeds United's Cody Drameh admits he was 'affected mentally' by January transfer backlash

On loan Leeds United defender Cody Drameh has admitted the backlash he received for leaving the club did affect him mentally. Drameh made the temporary switch to Cardiff City in January as he went in search for regular game time at a point in the season where Leeds found themselves stretched with injuries.

At the time of the transfer, Marcelo Bielsa revealed publicly that he was keen to keep Drameh due to the state the squad found themselves in. However, the former Fulham youngster had his heart set on a move away to a place where he knew he would be playing on a regular basis.

Drameh is set to return to Elland Road this summer once pre-season comes around, but thinks the criticism he received is now well and truly behind him, even if it did affect him earlier on.
