There are a lot of Leeds stars currently out on loan across Europe and also in England and here is how they are all performing so far this season.
Leeds are performing very well in the Championship and are currently third in the division. They are only eight points from first are could definitely make the automatic promotion spots if they stay consistent.
Leeds United loan watch
A lot of their key players from last season departed over the summer on loan following Leeds getting relegated from the Premier League. Despite this, manager Daniel Farke is doing a great job.
There are 10 players currently loaned out this season and there have been some good performances but also some bad ones, with some surprising stars struggling at their new clubs.
Brenden Aaronson (Union Berlin)
The USA international moved to Bundesliga side Union Berlin on a season-long loan but the move has not turned out as he would have wished.
Brenden Aaronson has featured 14 times this season for the German club, who are also in the Champions League. Only five of these appearances have been starts and the 23 year-old attacking midfielder has not managed to pick up a single goal or assists all season. Union Berlin have also lost their last nine Bundesliga matches.
Rating: 4/10
Robin Koch (Eintracht Frankfurt)
Robin Koch headed out on loan to Germany and is currently playing for Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt this season. He has featured 10 times in the German top flight, starting in all his appearances so far. The 27 year-old was also given the captain’s armband for their match against Hoffenheim in which they won 3-1. It’s safe to say that the player has definitely impressed.
Rating: 7/10
Max Wober (Borussia Moenchengladbach)
Max Wober is playing for Borussia Moenchengladbach this season and the centre-back is definitely enjoying his time in the Bundesliga. He has made 11 starts in the Bundesliga this season and become a key player for his temporary club. Wober has also managed to pick up two assists in Germany and has played the full 90 minutes in 9 of his 11 games.
Rating: 8/10
Jack Harrison (Everton)
Jack Harrison has become a key player for Everton since he returned from injury and he is no doubt enjoying his loan spell. Some reports are even suggesting that the winger could move to the Premier League side on a permanent deal.
In his six Premier League appearances, the Englishman has one goal and three assists and has helped the club comfortably push away from the relegation zone for the time being. His performances have been decent but there is also still room for improvement as well.
Rating: 7/10
Luis Sinisterra (Bournemouth)
Luis Sinisterra moved on loan to Premier League side Bournemouth on transfer deadline day, with Leeds signing Cherries winger Jaidon Anthony at the same time. It hasn’t been the best of starts for the Columbian, but he has definitely shown some glimpses of his top quality. So far, the winger has made five appearances, scoring one goal. The 24 year-old is yet to start for his loan club this season and has only played 121 minutes so far in the Premier League.
Rating: 5/10
Rasmus Kristensen (AS Roma)
The summer transfer window saw defender Rasmus Kristensen head out on loan to Serie A side AS Roma, where he is currently playing under Jose Mourinho. The right-back has managed 11 appearances in Italy this season, picking up one assist. There has been one issue however and that is the fact that the player was left out of their Europa League squad. Despite this, it looks like he will stay at Roma for the whole season and not move in January. He has started six times and this highlights that his performances have been inconsistent.
Marc Roca (Real Betis)
Marc Roca struggled at the start of his Real Betis loan move but now he has found a bit more consistency and is enjoying his time in Spain. The midfielder has played 13 times, scoring two goals and picking up one assist. He has started in 12 of these matches so he is clearly favoured by his current manager in La Liga.
Rating: 6/10
Sam Greenwood (Middlesbrough)
Sam Greenwood is no doubt enjoying life in the Championship with Middlesbrough. The Leeds academy product went on loan for the season but there is apparently a clause in the loan contract in which the club could buy him from Leeds at the end of the season for only £1.5m.
So far, Greenwood has featured in 12 matches, scoring four goals and he will be very happy with how he has started life at the club. He has scored in four out of the seven Championship matches in which he has started in.
Rating: 6/10
Cody Drameh (Birmingham)
Many may have been shocked to see Cody Drameh loaned out to Birmingham City this season as he had a very successful loan with Luton in the Championship last season. It has been a similar campaign for Drameh, with the right-back performing well; however, the recent appointment of Wayne Rooney as manager has seen results and performances drop. The player has two assists in his 13 Championship appearances so far.
Rating: 6/10
Sonny Perkins (Oxford United)
Sonny Perkins, who is a regular in the England youth setup, is currently on loan at Oxford United and will be there for the whole season. The 19 year-old is no doubt getting great experience during this loan move and it is believed that he has a bright future. Sadly, the forward has not been getting as much game time as he would have wanted. Perkins has featured five times of Oxford, scoring one goal. He has only played for three minutes in League One.
