Leeds United youngster Adrian Balboa is set to switch loan club after a rocky spell in Spain.

Balboa was sent on loan by Leeds to Terrassa FC at the start of the season.

He scored on his debut for the third division Spanish side, but has struggled to get going since. He played 486 minutes for the club in total.

Last night Terrassa announced on their website that Balboa has requested to leave the club.

Rather than returning to Leeds to go back to their under-23 squad, Balboa is set to join another team in Spain.

Diari De Terrassa report the 20-year-old striker will join Vilafranca FC, who play in the same division as Terrassa.

This is believed to be a continuation of the season long loan, with Vilafranca taking over the contract.

Balboa did not make a big impression at Leeds last season for the under-23s and needs a big turnaround to rescue his career at the club.

His contract at Leeds runs until 2020.
