Leeds United youngster Robbie Gotts strengthened his case for first team involvement with another impressive performance for the under-23 side.

Gotts scored Leeds’ opener in a 3-2 win over Coventry City in a game which went to extra time.

The winger proved his versatility, replacing Clarke Oduor late on at left-back after he had suffered an injury.

Gotts had lined up in central midfield, even that was a departure from his normal role as a winger.

He didn’t let it affect him, scoring within the first 10 minutes after being set up by Izzy Brown.

Gotts has featured on the bench for Marcelo Bielsa a number of times in 2019, but has not been called upon to make his debut.

Leeds have what is effectively a dead rubber this weekend in the Championship against Ipswich Town, and the game presents an opportunity for Leeds to rest players and give youngsters a chance.
