Leeds winger Summerville: Bielsa blocked me from leaving | OneFootball

Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville admitted playing frustrations last season.

In a documentary on the club's academy, Summerville spoke out about his January frustrations after being denied the opportunity to leave Leeds on loan.

“When I'm seeing my teammates going into the first-team, it's like, 'yeah, we can do it, the future is bright'," Summerville said. “Everything is possible and it's not like you're far away, but sometimes when you're young you think 'the opportunity is so far, I won't get a chance'.

“I wanted to play more first-team football and I respect Marcelo Bielsa and that he didn't choose me for some games. We had a conversation and I asked to leave on loan for six months to get some first team minutes.

“I spoke with him a lot about my behaviour and how I can act off the pitch as well. I think the main thing is you have to be patient and that's hard for a young lad."
