This week, Darko Gyabi concluded a loan transfer from Leeds United to Plymouth Argyle in the Championship. The midfield player acknowledged that life at Elland Road was “tough” under Daniel Farke
Gyabi, 19, has only managed two senior appearances for Leeds this season after winning just three the previous one. It follows the conclusion of a £5 million transfer from Manchester City, in which Kalvin Phillips went the opposite way.
Relegation was viewed by several players as a potential opportunity for growth. Fringe stars, or younger players, to become first choice. Cree Summerville, Archie Gray and Pascal Struijk have gained.
Farke announced during a press conference on Thursday that a change was imminent. It was verified shortly after that he had traveled to Plymouth. Gyabi claimed on his new side’s website that working under gaffer Farke was difficult.
“I moved to Leeds in 2022 after leaving City, and I gained some experience in the FA Cup and Premier League last season. In his first interview with Argyle‘s website, Gyabi stated, “This season, I found it difficult to find games.”
“Now, on loan to Argyle—another outstanding move. Everything made sense. The possibility to come to Argyle was there for me, I know the gaffer already and know some of the boys. For me, it was the ideal chance.
Darko Gyabi concedes that working under Daniel Farke at Leeds was difficult.
Gyabi, who played in the preseason in Oslo against Manchester United, deserves sympathy. Leeds pushed Gyabi back down the ranks by signing Glen Kamara, Ilia Gruev, and Ethan Ampadu.
Gyabi made a mistake by deciding to disregard a move in the summer. According to reports, Valenciennes, a lower league team in France, made a permanent offer, but Fleetwood wanted him on loan.
The midfielder needs senior playing time, therefore another six months were lost by staying at Leeds when he could have left. Gyabi now gets the opportunity to excel while at Plymouth on loan.
