Leeds United goalkeeper Kiko Casilla needs to win over some doubters at Elland Road next season.

Kiko Casilla looks on during the prematch warm up before the La Liga match between Sociedad Deportiva Huesca and Real Madrid at Estadio El Alcoraz on December 09, 2018 in Huesca, Spain.

Leeds United goalkeeper Kiko Casilla has liked a post on Instagram where he is very much the brunt of the joke.

Casilla was filmed in Leeds training using resistance ropes, which were attached to his goal.

Leeds fans couldn’t help but see the funny side and suggested that they were a technology destined to stop him rushing off his line, after Casilla’s shaky performance in the play off semi final.

Casilla was far too hasty to come out of his goal, and his erratic display was part of the reason why Leeds were beaten by Derby County in the end.

The Spaniard has faced fierce criticism since, but he seems to have taken the latest joke in good spirits.

Casilla looks likely to start next season as Leeds number one stopper, but he will be under pressure to win his doubters over.

The former Real Madrid man has proven to be a good shot stopper, but he will need to make fewer errors if Leeds are to be promoted next season.
