Sheffield Wednesday set to land Leeds United sensational star player which will help in Strengthening the Squad
The Colombian international enjoyed an excellent spell with the Owls prior to an injury cutting short his campaign, and Danny Röhl was full of praise for his efforts when donning Wednesday’s colours.
A host of clubs are reportedly keeping tabs on the 24-year-old, with Sunderland, Burnley and Luton Town all being credited with interest in him once he becomes a free agent in July, but ‘CP’ thinks that he’d be better off in a familiar environment.
“He played very, very well and all the players speak very highly of Danny Rohl,” Palmer told Football League World. “I think Poveda has to be very careful now. He didn’t have game at Leeds United, he needs to move somewhere where he is going to have game time.
“Of course, Burnley and Luton are going to be in the Championship next season, Sunderland are going to be in the Championship. I think the best fit for him is where he is, Sheffield Wednesday.
“Join a club where you enjoy, he’s become a fans’ favourite. Join a club where you’re playing regular football where you’re enjoying your football, where you’re enjoying playing for the manager.
“It’s not just about the money, you have to look at where you’re going to play your best football, where you’re going to play continually, where the fans enjoy seeing you and where the manager is playing you in your right position, where you’re enjoying your football and you understanding what you’re doing.”
Poveda’s Leeds United contract ends this summer, and he’ll no doubt be looking to put down some roots after spells in various parts of the county in recent years.
The Argentine had never managed before in England and could not speak English. But Orta, Radrizzani, Angus Kinnear and Carlos Corberan flew out to Argentina and got a deal done to hire the manager.
It culminated in Leeds finishing in the play-offs in his first season, and then winning the Championship a season later. Bielsa became a Leeds legend for it, even more so for guiding Leeds to ninth in the top tier.
But after just one season, Bielsa had to wave goodbye to Kemar Roofe despite the strike scoring 15 goals under the Argentine in Bielsa’s first season. Roofe moved to Anderlecht under Vincent Kompany for £7m.
Now, five years after his Elland Road exit, 31-year-old Roofe has confirmed he is now a free agent with a post on his Instagram and here is what he said below
