It’s still a good thing Leeds didn’t get this deal done

Over the summer we were linked with a number of players as Marcelo Bielsa came into the club and looked to improve the side.

In the end, though, we didn’t actually sign too many with Bielsa preferring to keep things rather streamlined in terms of the senior squad.

MBaye Diagne didn’t come in, then, for example – despite being linked by turkish-football – and he instead signed for a club in Turkey, Kasimpasa.

There, he has scored a hatful of goals already this season, too, with some powerful displays but, even so, it’s for the best we did not get a deal done for him.

Though he has started well, it’s way too early to say we missed out and, actually, it’s clear that he’s playing at a much lower level than the Championship.

For sure, he might have brought something else to the side but, despite our lack of forwards, I think it was for the best we didn’t bring him in.
