Jean-Kevin Augustin is one of the only players involved in Leeds United’s success who still hasn’t posted on social media since their promotion.

Leeds’s promotion was confirmed last week and they were subsequently confirmed as champions just days later, sparking wild celebrations at Elland Road.

Many of Marcelo Bielsa’s side have been extremely active on social media, as they join the fans in rejoicing in the achievement.

However, Augustin’s lack of a response to Leeds’ success has been noticeable.

When the Frenchman first joined he was very active on Twitter and he constantly engaged with Leeds supporters.

But his silence may just show that he doesn’t particularly feel part of Leeds promotion bid, and who can blame him?

The RB Leipzig forward has had a rather miserable time with injury since moving to Yorkshire, and has not been able to showcase his talents.

There are now serious doubts over where his future lies, as Leeds were thought to have agreed to take Augustin on a permanent deal if they went up.

The master plan in January was for Augustin to fire the Whites to the Premier League, and then land him on a permanent basis for next season.

But the move has not worked out for player or club, and Augustin’s silence on social media may just highlight that he really doesn’t feel part of the squad at Elland Road now.
