Leeds loanee Yosuke Ideguchi is struggling for regular game time on loan at Cultrual Leonesa.
Leeds United loanee Yosuke Ideguchi has once again failed to be afforded more than just a cameo role with loan side Cultural Leonesa at the weekend – and Leeds fans vented their frustration on Twitter.
The 21-year-old appeared for the final eight minutes of Leonesa’s 1-0 loss to Samu Saiz’s former side CD Huesca, as he remains without a start for the Spanish second division side.
An 11-time Japan international, Ideguchi needs regular game time if he is to book his place on the plane to Russia this summer, but he has clocked up just 62 minutes spread across four appearances since moving to Spain in January.
Ideguchi was signed for a fee believed to be in the region of £500,000 from top-tier Japanese outfit Gamba Osaka, but he is yet to prove his worth with Leonesa manager Ruben de la Barrera overlooking him once again on Sunday.
Leeds fans reacted to his latest appearance, which saw him feature for less than 10 minutes, as they expressed their annoyance at why Leeds let him go on loan when he is unable to feature regularly.
The majority of Leeds fans reacted sarcastically, while one fan reckons the signing of Ideguchi was signed to boost “shirt sales”.
