Leeds United boss Jesse Marsch and former head coach Marcelo Bielsa have given rave reviews about Sunderland new boy Joe Gelhardt. The Whites youngster has signed a season-long loan deal with the Black Cats, after featuring 18 times for Leeds so far this season.
The 20-year-old has been used sparingly under Marsch this season, but is highly thought of at Elland Road. After bursting on the the scene with Wigan back in 2019, Leeds wasted no time in capturing the youngster's signing.
Gelhardt has found himself somewhat unfortunate to be on the fringes, given the fine form of Spaniard Rodrigo, who is Leeds' top goal scorer this season. Joffy, as he's known among the Whites fanbase, impressed Marsch during their mid-season friendlies as part of the World Cup break.
