Leeds United won against Rotherham United at Elland Road in the Championship on Saturday.
Klich was in action for Leeds in their Championship game against Rotherham at Elland Road.
The 28-year-old Poland international midfielder started the match and played until the first minute of injury time, as Marcelo Bielsa’s side won 2-0.
Former Leeds striker Whelan was impressed with the display produced by Klich, who joined the Championship club from FC Twente in the summer of 2017 for a transfer fee reported by The Yorkshire Evening Post to be worth £1.5 million.
Whelan said on BBC Radio Leeds on Saturday afternoon (16:50, August 18, 2018) about Klich: “He has not got on the scoresheet, he has not been that player that got beyond the defence of Rotherham that we have seen, but he has done a very, very important job today. He worked his socks off. He has been better in the second half, more busy on the ball.”
In form
Klich struggled to make an impact at Leeds last season and spent the second half of the 2017-18 campaign on loan at FC Utrecht.
Not many would have expected the Poland international to establish himself in Bielsa’a starting lineup this season, but the midfielder has done just that.
In three Championship appearances for Leeds so far this season, the midfielder has scored two goals and provided one assist, according to WhoScored.
