Leeds United are set to be without Jean-Kevin Augustin and Ian Poveda yet again at the weekend.
Leeds United fans have been left frustrated after Marcelo Bielsa suggested that Jean-Kevin Augustin and Ian Poveda won’t be part of his side’s match day squad at the weekend, for their clash with Huddersfield Town.
Leeds brought in both Augustin and Poveda in the January transfer window, and there was great excitement about the duo arriving at Elland Road.
However, neither of the pair have made any sort of impact at Leeds so far.
And, with time running out in the season, they seem to be some way down the pecking order at Bielsa’s side.
“Augustin is not ready yet. It’s going to be the same group as the last match,” Bielsa said to Leeds Live.
The news that Augustin and Poveda won’t be involved has frustrated Leeds fans, and serious questions are now being asked about their January recruitment.
Thankfully for Leeds, Bielsa has been able to turn his side’s form around even without the influence of Augustin and Poveda.
The Whites have won their last four Championship matches to strengthen their grip on second spot.
If Bielsa’s men can beat Huddersfield tomorrow they could even go top of the table, if West Brom slip up.
