Leeds United defender Luke Ayling has returned to action since having surgery on an ankle problem in July, and he was named in the side’s under-23’s clash against Watford on Monday night.

It’s hard to see Ayling breaking into the Argentine’s XI once he becomes fully fit and returns permanently to the first team. It’s a sentiment Leeds expert Phil Hay shares as he reacted to the defender’s inclusion in the under-23s squad for Monday’s game.
