Pre-season is underway for Leeds United as a large contingent descended upon Leeds Beckett University for their opening day set of tests with the sports scientists and backroom team. Using the university’s Carnegie School of Sport and pitches, the majority of those players who had no international duties in the summer were spotted.
There have been no massive surprises in the names spotted across the various pictures released from the first day, but certainly some reminders of those players who have been away and come back. Ian Poveda, Leif Davis and Cody Drameh were all pictured in the new training gear on the first day back.
All three spent part of last season on loan in the Championship and there is every chance they are sent out again for more match minutes, but they will stay and compete for places right now. Meanwhile, Archie Gray, the 16-year-old prodigy, also remains a part of the senior squad based on the pictures released.
