Leeds United sent young striker Mallik Wilks out on loan over the summer to League One side Doncaster Rovers as he looked to increase his experience as he continues to develop.
The 20-year-old has a bright start to life at the Keepmoat Stadium, scoring in his opening three games for them before he suffered the inevitable dip in form. He’s kept plugging away though and having found the net last weekend in their game against Charlton Athletic, he’s made it four goals in the last six matches, to take his tally to 13 for the 2018/19 campaign so far.
It’s turning into a very productive spell for him and by all accounts, Doncaster fans are pretty impressed with his continued efforts in their shirt.
It’s not just Doncaster fans who have been pleased with him though, Leeds United fans watching on from a far are looking forward to his return and potential first team involvement for us as he continues to find his feet in the game.
