It seems like Mallik Wilks is sending big and clear messages to Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa on a weekly basis.

Wilks, on loan at Doncaster from Leeds, scored a fine goal in this afternoon’s 1-1 draw with Charlton Athletic.

In doing so, the 20-year-old made it 13 for the season in all competitions, and four of those have come in his last six games.

The Whites loaned him back to Rovers again in January and here’s how some Leeds fans have reacted to his latest goal.

There is a big difference in quality from League One and Championship football, but 13 goals from the wing is mightily impressive.

But will United still be in the Championship next term? Bielsa’s side thumped West Brom 4-0 on Friday to move top of the division yet again, though Norwich have since usurped them.

There’s every chance that Leeds could be a Premier League side by the time Wilks returns and it’ll be interesting to see if he can do enough to remain in West Yorkshire next season, whatever happens.
