Mateusz Klich admits he didn't want to leave Leeds United in January and had hoped to be an important part of the team under Jesse Marsch. However, the writing was on the wall for the Poland international who didn't start a league game for the Whites under the United States head coach.
The 32-year-old was a fan favourite during his time at Elland Road, playing his part in Marcelo Bielsa's Championship winning squad back in 2019-20. Klichy won the Leeds United Goal of the Season award the year prior to that, with a 30-yard strike against Sheffield Wednesday.
Tireless with his work ethic on the pitch and a great character off it, Whites' supporters were gutted when he left to join DC United, despite Leeds struggling in the top flight.
