Leeds United winger Stuart Dallas will be action for Northern Ireland this evening.
Stuart Dallas has struggled to play regularly for Leeds United so far this season, with the former Brentford winger having managed just 15 minutes of Championship football for Marcelo Bielsa’s side.
True, there have been injury and fitness concerns, but even when fully fit – as Dallas is now – the Northern Ireland international winger is not guaranteed a place in Bielsa’s starting lineup.
The 27-year-old, who can also operate as a wing-back, though, does have the chance to prove a point to Bielsa this evening.
The former Crusaders star – who joined Leeds from Championship rivals Brentford in the summer of 2015 for a transfer fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £1.3 million – played well against Bosnia and Herzegovina in the UEFA Nations League Group B3 at Windsor Park this past Saturday.
The 27-year-old started the match and played for the entire 90 minutes, and the Leeds ace was a constant nuisance for the visiting team’s defence and was always a handful.
Northern Ireland will take on Israel in a friendly international this evening, and Dallas will only make Leeds head coach Bielsa take more notice of him by playing well.
