Spanish club Las Palmas have signed Leeds United winger Hadi Sacko on loan and he has responded by stating he has left Elland Road in search of more regular football.

The La Liga 2 club confirmed on Monday they have signed the 24-year-old on a season-long loan subject to a medical.

Las Palmas have announced today (Tuesday) that the Mali international has passed his medical with them and his move is now complete, as they rebuild after their relegation from the Spanish top flight last season.

Sacko has spoken out on social media about his exit and bid his farewell to Leeds supporters.

“Blue and yellow will remind me of my good time in Leeds but I have to play more now. Thanks for everything,” Sacko wrote on his personal Twitter account.

Sacko had a frustrating campaign with Leeds last season, making just 18 senior appearances across all competitions.

The right winger is renowned for his pace and trickery, but failed to consolidate his spot in the starting XI and has now jumped ship to Spain on loan to play on a more regular basis.

He has not managed to work his way into the plans of new Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa, but the club already have a replacement for Sacko in the shape of new loan signing Jack Harrison from Manchester City.
