Report: Leeds United midfielder Yosuke Ideguchi out until March

The 2018/19 season has gone from bad to worse for Leeds United midfielder Yosuke Ideguchi.

The 22-year-old joined Leeds in the January transfer window, but was immediately sent on loan to Leeds’s feeder team in Spain, Aspire Academy owned club Cultural Leonesa.

The loan move didn’t work out. He lost a place in the Japan national team for the World Cup. He returned to Leeds in the pre-season, but failed to impress Marcelo Bielsa. He then joined Bundesliga side Greuther Fürth on a season-long loan deal with an option to make the deal permanent.
