Leeds United attacker Kemar Roofe is looking forward to this evening’s friendly match, the club’s first under Marcelo Bielsa.

The Whites have done over a fortnight of intensive training under Bielsa, including sessions up to four times a day.

This evening’s game away at Forest Green is a chance to put the theory into practice, and Bielsa’s first taste of managing in England.

Roofe is ready, sending a message to fans expressing his excitement for the game.

Roofe is likely to feature in the game, but it is unclear in which position Marcelo Bielsa views him.

The former West Brom prospect could be used up front, or on the wing.

New loan signings Lewis Baker and Jamal Blackman are both expected to make their first appearances for Leeds in the friendly, which kicks off at 7pm.
