Leeds United’s Under-23 side recorded a 2-0 win over Bolton Wanderers’ Under-23 outfit on Monday afternoon.
The result means that the team have restored a four-point lead at the top of the PDL North table.
One of those to feature for the Whites was 22-year-old defender Hugo Diaz.
Diaz, who arrived at Leeds from Deportivo La Coruna in 2017, appeared in the Championship earlier this season – playing 33 minutes against Preston North End in October.
The Spaniard has been with the Under-23 side since, although he was an unused substitute in the FA Cup loss against Queens Park Rangers last month.
The 6ft ace has been a strong performer for the Under-23s and as a result, many Leeds fans feel that the defender will ultimately be given more chances in the first team.
It remains to be seen whether the Spaniard has a long-term future at Elland Road, but he retains the support of the fans, that is for sure.
