Vital Leeds United is keeping a close eye on how the Leeds players are doing during their loan spells away from the club.

Leeds have six players out on a loan at the moment.

Lewie Coyle – Fleetwood Town (Season-long loan)
Appearances 23 (1) Total 24 Goals 0


Coyle played the 90 minutes on Tuesday as Fleetwood ended their poor run in League One with a 2-1 win at Oldham Athletic.

Tyler Denton – Port Vale (Season-long loan)
Appearances 15 (6) Total 21 Goals 0


Denton came off the bench on 67 minutes on Tuesday to help Port Vale secure a 1-0 win against Coventry City.

Port Vale scored the winner with just 11 minutes remaining as they continued their revival under former Leeds defender Neil Aspin.

Port Vale have now picked up ten points from a possible twelve in December to move clear of the relegation places.

Luke Murphy – Burton Albion (Season-long loan)
Appearances 22 (2) Total 24 Goals 0


Murphy was ineligible to play against Leeds United on Tuesday as part of his loan deal agreement.

Marcus Antonsson – Blackburn Rovers (Season-long loan)
Appearances 20 (3) Total 23 Goals 8


Antonsson played the first hour for Blackburn on Boxing Day as they continued their push for an instant return to the Championship, with a 2-0 home win against Rochdale.

The Swedish striker was involved in the first goal as he played a one-two with Bradley Dack and Dack saw his effort come back off the keeper and hit Rochdale defender Ntlhe before going in.

Antonsson has now gone five games without a goal having enjoyed a successful November.

Mallik Wilks – Accrington Stanley (On loan until January 3rd 2018
Appearances 7 (16) Total 23 Goals 5


Wilks made a rare league start for Accrington before being replaced on 79 minutes in their clash at Carlisle United.

Accrington saw their promotion hopes hit as they went down to a 3-1 defeat.

The young Leeds striker missed a great chance to level for Accrington with the score 1-0 in the first half. Wilks latched on to a bad back pass but he was denied by the Carlisle goalkeeper when through one-on-one.

Wilks was eventually replaced on 79 minutes just moments after Carlisle had made the score 2-1 and the Cumbrian side then added a third in the final ten minutes.

Ouasim Bouy – Cultural Leonesa – (Season-long loan)
Appearances 1 (3) Total 4 Goals 0


Leonesa are without a game until January 7th as the Spanish league enjoys a winter break.
