Jesse Marsch played a key role in Luis Sinisterra’s decision to join Leeds United earlier this month. The winger completed his switch to Elland Road from Feyenoord last week for an undisclosed fee, thought to be around the £20million mark.
Sinisterra linked up with his new team-mates last week at Thorp Arch before flying out with them to Australia for the start of the Whites’ pre-season tour and he is expected to make his first appearance for the club in Thursday’s pre-season friendly clash with Brisbane Roar at the Cbus Super Stadium in Gold Coast. The Colombia international's form in a Feyenoord shirt, scoring 23 goals in all competitions last season, attracted plenty of potential suitors, with Arsenal and Everton linked to his signature earlier in the transfer window.
However, the words of Marsch and Victor Orta were enough to persuade him to become Leeds' sixth summer recruit.
