Manchester City defender Tosin Adarabioyo needs a loan move, and Leeds United are ideal.
Pep Guardiola is a huge fan of Manchester City defender Tosin Adarabioyo, so he proclaims.
But the Premier League winning manager could not find playing time for the 20-year-old England youth international last season, and splashed out on Aymeric Laporte midway through the campaign instead of promoting the youngster.
Adarabioyo needs a loan move this coming season, and defender needy Leeds United are the perfect next step.
City handed Adarabioyo a new contract last season so clearly have big plans for the defender, and the only way he can make the step up is to start playing regular football or risk stagnating in the academy.
Previously linked to Everton and Celtic, Adarabioyo is ready, and Guardiola will trust Marcelo Bielsa with the young talent.
New Leeds boss Bielsa is regarded by Guardiola as ‘the best in the world’, with BBC Sport reporting his admiration for the Argentine’s methods.
Adarabioyo is viewed as a long term successor vfor Vincent Kompany at City, but he turns 21 in September and needs to move.
Playing under Bielsa at Leeds in the Championship is the ideal way for Adarabioyo to prepare for playing under Guardiola, while also getting further adapted to English football.
Leeds could really do with having him on board, but Adarabioyo needs the switch just as much.
