Jermaine Beckford explains player’s decision to leave Leeds United on loan and why it won’t work at Elland Road

Leeds United let five players go on loan and waved goodbye to eight players in permanent transactions during the summer. Jermaine Beckford has been talking about one of those players.

Georginio Rutter, Archie Gray, and Crysencio Summerville relocated to the Premier League. Charlie Cresswell and Glen Kamara to France, Marc Roca and Diego Llorente to Real Betis, and Kris Klaesson to Poland at first.

Since then, Klaesson has joined AGF Aarhus in Denmark when his contract with Rakow was canceled. Jack Harrison and Rasmus Kristensen had a second-year Victor Orta loan clause, while five other players went out on loan.

In addition to Sonny Perkins, Darko Gyabi, and Sam Greenwood leaving the team on temporary contracts, they are at Everton and Frankfurt. This is the second time that the three have left Leeds to go on loan.

Jermaine Beckford says Sam Greenwood not suited to Leeds

In the summer, it was perhaps a surprise when Greenwood was allowed to go on loan to Preston. He had a hand in eight goals at Middlesbrough, and Leeds lack cover for Brenden Aaronson in the 10 role.

They also lack a set-piece specialist, aside from Joe Rothwell. But Greenwood left Leeds to join Preston on loan, a move that is now seeing him play under North End manager Paul Heckingbottom at the moment.

Speaking on Sky Sports as Preston drew 0-0 with Sunderland, Beckford explains why £3m Leeds signing Greenwood simply does not suit Leeds – even if he impressed with the 21’s and is deadly from free-kicks.

“He didn’t get the same opportunities at Leeds, he just wasn’t quite suited. The pressure at Preston is not going to be as much as it is at Leeds, the expectation is not going to be as much as it is at Leeds United.”
