Saiz only signed for the Yorkshire side in the last window, and the Spaniard has scored eight games since arriving in England from Spain’s second tier.

Leeds United’s win at the weekend will give them confidence going into this week’s EFL Cup game against Leicester City. The Championship side beat Burnley in the last round on penalties, and they’ll be hoping to take another Premier League scalp on Tuesday night.
