Ian Poveda arrived at Leeds United with a lot of hype surrounding him.

The fanbase were excited when they heard that the youngster was signing from Manchester City last month, and you can understand why.

The winger has been on the books at Arsenal, Barcelona and Man City, and you’d think that he must be a talented player to have caught the eye of those three gigantic clubs.

Marcelo Bielsa apparently rates the winger very highly, but for one reason or another, he’s not giving him a chance.

The 20-year-old is still yet to make his league debut, and as of late he’s not even making the bench.

He’s not injured as he played for the U23s on Friday, and scored an impressive goal in training earlier this week, so why on earth isn’t he getting a place in the squad?

United fans were bemused as the January signing was once again left out of the squad, and some were desperate for answers as to why he isn’t in the team, asking some of the top journalists covering the club for an explanation.

Others weren’t best pleased with the winger’s absence.

The hashtag #FreePoveda has become quite a popular one amongst the supporters on social media, and many used that to make their points, while others simply complained about him not being included.

In other news, Marcelo Bielsa’s view on one Leeds man is wrong.
