Rafa Mujica’s career at Leeds United is yet to really get started.

Leeds signed Mujica from Barcelona B, before loaning him out to Spanish side Extremadura.

In between was just a brief pre-season appearance for the Whites.

Mujica made his debut for Extremadura at the weekend in a Spanish second division match against Cadiz.

He came on in the second half with the game tied at 1-1.

Unfortunately for Mujica, Cadiz scored an injury time winner to clinch a 2-1 victory.

Mujica sent a message to fans after the game, expressing his disappointment, aligned with his excitement at the loan spell getting started.

He wrote via Instagram: “Undeserved result, but this just started. It will be a nice season.

“Thank you to all the fans who came to Cadiz to support us, come on Extremadura.”

Mujica needs a big season to catch Leeds’ eye enough to come back as a first team player next year, but at this early stage he should be optimistic.

A first start may not be too far away.
