Kylian Mbappe encounters Leeds United-shaped problem as ex-Whites man bites back

Jesse Marsch, the former Leeds manager, is currently in charge of Canada, and he watched his second game on Sunday night. As his new team defeated giants, former Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch’s second game in charge of the Canadian national team turned out to be rather better than his first. Marsch was named the team’s new head coach in May, but his first match in charge of the Canadian national team ended badly as his team lost badly, falling to the Netherlands 4-0 in a friendly played in Rotterdam. In a second friendly on Sunday night, Canada faced France in what appeared to be an even more difficult match, but Marsch’s team held off Kylian Mbappe and company to leave Bordeaux with a goalless draw.

Mbappe entered the game with 16 minutes remaining despite being listed as a reserve. Antoine Griezmann, Olivier Giroud, and Eduardo Camavinga were among the French players who had 13 shots on goal against Canada’s seven missed opportunities. Despite this, the French team was unable to find a way through. The friendly served as Canada’s final warm-up before the Copa America and France’s final match before the Euros.

Football Insider has been informed by sources that Leeds United is making every effort to hold onto teenage sensation Archie Gray this summer. Senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed that the Whites will be hoping Gray chooses to stay at the team and aid them in their push for promotion again the following season in an interview with Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast. According to a report published by Football Insider on May 28, Leeds will make “every effort” to retain the 18-year-old at Elland Road past this summer. The England U-21 international is one of the Whites’ most sought-after assets, but after their Championship play-off final 1-0 loss to Southampton, interest in a number of their star players is anticipated.

According to sources, the West Yorkshire club is going to make an attempt to retain him at the team from his youth, using him as the focal point of their strategy to return to the Premier League the following year. After agreeing to an extension in January 2024, the adolescent’s contract is valid until June 2028.
