The defender arrived on a shock free transfer in the summer.
Leeds United were busy on transfer deadline day yesterday, bringing in Alfonso Pedraza and Modou Barrow on loan until the end of the season.
But there was no shock deadline day signing, like there was in the summer.
Leeds could regret failing to sign £300k goal-machine bargain at second attempt?
Leeds surprised everyone by signing Amadou Haidara on deadline day in the summer. The 22-year-old was formerly at Nantes, had a trial at Nottingham Forest and Pacos Ferreira after his release from the French side in 2014.

Other than that, his whereabouts were unknown, before turning up at Leeds.
All that was known was he shared an agent with Leeds winger Hadi Sacko and then club captain Sol Bamba.

He has been featuring for the Leeds under-23s since and is now getting back to something like full fitness.
He sent this message on his Instagram yesterday as he highlights he is not giving up on his Leeds United dream:
He is certainly looking in better shape compared to when Leeds first signed him last summer.
Whether he has a future at Leeds remains to be seen. He did not get the nod for the recent FA Cup tie against Sutton United and it seems he is facing an uphill battle to have a long-term future at Elland Road.
