Pedraza has spent the first part of this season on loan at Segunda Liga side Lugo and he also had a heartfelt message for them:
Leeds did not register the player in time for the fixture with Blackburn Rovers tomorrow night, but he will be available for the weekend fixture against Huddersfield Town.
