Barry Douglas comments on his Leeds situation amid Celtic speculation

Leeds United left-back Barry Douglas has admitted to The Yorkshire Evening Post that lack of playing time “can be frustrating at times” for him, amid reported interest from Celtic.

Douglas has said that he has to be ready for action if Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa wants him to start.

The left-back has had injury issues last season, and when he recovered his fitness and was available for selection, he could not displace Stuart Dallas from the starting lineup.

Dallas is a winger by trade, but the Northern Ireland international has done well at left-back for Leeds.
