Meanwhile, Eddie Nketiah has explained his decision to move to Leeds on transfer deadline day.
The 20-year-old forward has joined the Whites on a season-long loan deal from Premier League club Arsenal.
Nketiah told Leeds’s official website: “It’s been flattering to have a lot of interest, but Leeds, with the fan base from what I have seen on social media has been really welcoming.
“The style of play was also a big part in me coming here over other clubs, this is the play that I like and feel like I will suit.
“The methods of the manager are great and hopefully I can add my own spin and help take the club forward.”
Leeds midfielder Adam Forshaw has praised his teammates Kalvin Phillips and Patrick Bamford.
Forshaw said about Phillips, as quoted in Leeds Live: “Selfish point of view, I want him here so we can get promoted.”
The midfielder added about Bamford, as quoted in Leeds Live: “Showed every sign of his game. He’s flying and looking fit. Very confident.”
