This piece of Leeds United news may have slipped through on Friday ahead of the game against Derby County.
With ‘Spygate’ dominating the airwaves following manager Marcelo Bielsa’s statement prior to kickoff, earlier in the day the club moved Pawel Cibicki on once again as the 25-year-old completed a loan move out to Swedish side Elfsborg.

His spell at Elland Road has been an unmitigated failure as following his arrival in 2017 he’s only made ten appearances for us, and he spent the first half of this season out on loan with Molde.
Having returned to no fanfare at the beginning of January, he heads away from the club for the second half of the campaign and for most fans they’ll be hoping there is a buy deal included as he’s not going to get himself up and running with us now is he.
Probably best for all parties if we can part ways, but in terms of an immediate benefit at least it frees up a bit in the budget as plenty of fans are hoping to see an arrival or two this month to bolster our promotion chances.
All loans aren’t we

really needed a game or two to prove himself, why are we loaning our players who haven’t been given a proper chance to prove themselves at this level
