Leeds goalkeeper made debut last night.
Leeds United goalkeeper Jamal Blackman made his pre-season debut for the club last night against Oxford United.
He came on with the Whites 3-0 down, and he conceded one as Leeds lost 4-3, with their second half comeback not quite enough.
Blackman signed for Leeds on loan from Chelsea earlier this month and fans have had to wait to see him in action.
After the game Blackman sent a message on Twitter expressing his delight at finally getting his gloves back on.
Blackman is hoping to win the number one spot from Leeds youngster Bailey Peacock-Farrell, who was rested last night.
England youth international Will Huffer played the first 45 minutes against Oxford in goal.
Last night’s game was a key checkpoint for Jamal Blackman to mark off in his quest to start the first game of the season.
He must prove his fitness to new boss Marcelo Bielsa, with the Whites facing Stoke City on Sunday August 5 at Elland Road.
