Leeds United to make loan decision on youth gem Cian Coleman
The Yorkshire Evening Post reports that Leeds United star Cian Coleman will have his loan at Buxton extended until the start of January.
Last month, the Leeds Under-21 player signed a one-month initial loan agreement to join the National League North team.
According to the YEP (20 November), this deal is expected to be extended. This move has been the 20-year-old’s first taste of senior football, and he appears to have adjusted well.
Coleman at Buxton an impressive reflection on Leeds United
For young players, the move from youth football to men’s football might be the most difficult, and it’s common to witness budding talent struggle with this change.
But since his recent arrival, Coleman has adapted to life at Buxton with ease and established himself as a vital member of the team.
The midfielder has already recorded two assists and four goals in seven games since joining, including a hat-trick in a 3-2 victory over Scunthorpe United.
The young player is making his debut in professional football, so it’s no surprise that Leeds is eager to prolong his loan period, which will undoubtedly help him gain more confidence. This is excellent form for a midfielder.
Additionally, Coleman will be content to remain since he is keen to accrue as many minutes as possible, which Buxton appears more than willing to provide him moving ahead.
Leeds United to make Sam Greenwood sale decision, he’s exceeded expectations
Sam Greenwood has shown promise while on loan at Leeds United, but his future at Elland Road will need to be decided.
On loan at Preston, Greenwood has performed admirably. According to the Lancashire Post (20 November), he has “exceeded expectations” at Deepdale, earning a 7 out of 10 for the season.
However, his future in Leeds is still uncertain. Leeds has a deal with the 22-year-old through the summer of 2026, although he might leave before then.
Sam Greenwood is unlikely to play a big part for Leeds United
The club may have to decide whether to cash in on Greenwood while his stock is high since, despite his impressive loan performance, it appears doubtful that he will establish himself as a first-team regular at Elland Road.
Additionally, according to the Lancashire Post, Preston is thought to have a buyout clause in the loan agreement that they could choose to exercise if his performances keep getting better.
