Jesse Marsch took his Leeds United side’s first pre-season training session on Australian soil this afternoon in Gold Coast. It was an open training session, with supporters being invited to watch the Whites be put through their paces at the Cbus Super Stadium, where they will face Brisbane Roar on Thursday in the first of three friendlies they are scheduled to play Down Under.
Leeds are preparing for the start of the new Premier League season, which is now just three and a half weeks away and they were worked hard on Tuesday afternoon. Players were split into groups and they completed a number of short but intense drills, all of which included a ball.
Leeds Live was in attendance to watch training and here’s a few observations.
