Leeds United have loaned Adrian Balbao out to Terrassa.
Leeds United fans may be hoping for more incomings before next week’s loan deadline, but the club confirmed a departure in the early hours of Friday morning.
The Whites could look to add more quality to Marcelo Bielsa’s squad even after three wins and a draw in their first four Championship games under the Argentinian, and fringe youngsters may leave the club as a result.
For instance, Jay-Roy Grot has joined VVV-Venlo, Alex Machuca has headed back to Spain with Burgos, and Yosuke Ideguchi signed for Greuther Furth on loan earlier this week.
Now, it’s the turn of forward Adrian Balboa, as Leeds have confirmed that he has also gone back to Spain in order to sign for Terrassa on loan for the season.
Balboa, 20, was snapped up by compatriot Victor Orta last summer, but will now be heading to the fourth tier of of Spanish football after the deal was announced on Leeds’ official website.
That seems to spell the end of some confusion over Balboa’s future, as CF Badalona recently claimed on Twitter that they had an agreement with Leeds to sign Balboa – a deal which Leeds notably never confirmed.
Diari de Terrassa reported earlier this week that Balboa was set for Terrassa, and Leeds have now confirmed that those reports are true with Balboa’s departure all sorted, though it’s unclear just what happened to a deal with Badalona.
