Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa appears to be looking to sell Eunan O’Kane, Caleb Ekuban and Hadi Sacko.

Marcelo Bielsa’s initial team selections at Leeds United do not appear to be good news at all for Eunan O’Kane, Caleb Ekuban or Hadi Sacko.

However, O’Kane, Ekuban and Sacko are yet to feature at all in pre-season and that surely sends the message that they are all set to depart.

Leeds have already sold a sizeable amount of players this summer, with Bielsa’s squad looking thin on the ground.

But the signs that O’Kane, Ekuban or Sacko could be brought back into Bielsa’s first-team don’t look good.
