Leeds United Under-21s will look to make the most of the international break as they gear up for one final push for promotion. That’s according to Mateo Joseph, who bagged a brace on Sunday afternoon as the young Whites saw off Sunderland 3-1 at Elland Road.
That result was enough to see Leeds restore their three-point lead at the top of the Premier League 2 Division 2 table and with just three games left to play, they find themselves sitting firmly in the driving seat. United’s squad will break up this week as some players travel to represent their respective countries and Joseph is one due to leave West Yorkshire after receiving his first England U20s call-up last week.
However, the internationals within the U21s’ camp will return next week in time to face Stoke City on March 31 and they’ll be raring to go as they aim to take another huge step towards a return to the top flight.
