Leeds United’s loan players have had mixed fortunes so far, with Mallik Wilks shining and Eunan O’Kane suffering a season ending injury.

One player who appears to be struggling is winger Hadi Sacko.

Sacko was loaned out to Spanish side Las Palmas, after Leeds played them in a pre-season friendly at Elland Road.

So far for the Gran Canaria based side, Sacko has found it tough going.

Five weeks into his spell at the Liga2 side, Sacko is yet to start a single game.

There have been six possible matches for Sacko in total, five league games and one cup game.

Sacko has only featured in three of them.

Of those matches, he came off the bench for them all, with his longest appearance standing at 22 minutes.

At the weekend for Gran Canaria’s fixture against Extremadura, Sacko didn’t feature at all.

Leeds paid £1.2 million to sign Sacko in 2017, and selected him to start in only one league game last season.

The winger hoped a loan move would be the key to regular football to give his career a fresh start.

It’s early days, but it’s looking worrying so far.
