Leeds United’s Under-23s travel to Sheffield United on Monday afternoon.

Madger Gomes has been named in the starting line-up for Leeds United’s Under-23s fixture at Sheffield United on Monday.

The summer signing from Liverpool featured in a number of Leeds’ senior squads earlier in the season, but had gone off the radar until last week’s behind-closed-doors friendly against Bradford City.

Gomes, however, is one of four changes made by Whites boss Carlos Corberan at Bracken More Lane, alongside Will Huffer, Bryce Hosannah and Sam Dalby, with Bailey Pecock-Farrell, Callum Nicell, Jack Clarke and Jay-Roy Grot the four who drop out.

Corberan’s side thrashed Nottingham Forest 5-1 in their last fixture, with Oliver Sarkic, Oriol Rey, Adrian Balboa, Paudie O’Connor and Tom Pearce on target.

And all of those, bar Balboa, make Leeds’ starting 11 in Sheffield.

Leeds United’s first team lost to their Sheffield United counterparts at Bramall Lane nine days ago.

Could Gomes return to first team contention?
