Manchester City youngsters to join Leeds United on loan?

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is said to be willing to help out Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa with player loans.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is reportedly willing to allow the club's youngsters to join Leeds United on loan following the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa at Elland Road.

The Spaniard previous cited the new Whites boss as a major influence on his career and, according to The Sun, he is keen to strike up a development partnership with him.

The report suggests that City goalkeeping prospect Angus Gunn could be the first player to move to Elland Road on loan, signing a 12-month temporary deal.

Other players who could follow him there include Tosin Adarabioyo, Brahim Diaz and Lukas Nmecha.

Bielsa's high-pressing style of play and Leeds's close proximity to Manchester are said to be among the key factors behind Guardiola's willingness to work with the club.
