Leeds United forward Mateo Joseph says he is working hard to prove to first-team boss Daniel Farke that he can be trusted as a regular fixture of the Whites’ senior attacking options.
Joseph has been limited to just two international appearances from the substitutes’ bench for England’s Under-20s this season after an ankle injury ruled him out of the first month of Leeds’ 2023/24 campaign. The Spanish-born England youth international spoke exclusively to the YEP following the Young Lions’ last-minute Elite League defeat by Portugal at MK Dons’ stadium:mk on Wednesday evening, discussing his goals for the remainder of the season and observations working under Farke so far.
Nor has he turned out for Michael Skubala’s Under-21s who he skippered and finished top scorer for last season, despite England teammate Darko Gyabi and fellow fringe member Lewis Bate featuring extensively. The teenager played 101 minutes during Leeds’ pre-season fixtures, just shy of Patrick Bamford’s 191 and Georginio Rutter’s 160, however the Frenchman’s blistering start this term, coupled with Joel Piroe’s signing, means Joseph’s path to regular senior football has been somewhat blocked.
