Football in the modern era is all about athleticism. Coaching has come a long way in the past couple of decades, raising the floor of elite footballers' general ability, but the truly elite players combine their footballing with frightening athleticism. Geovany Quenda is among them - and that's exactly why Chelsea bought him. The Blues' stockpiling of young talent in recent years is a bone of contention for fans of rival clubs but one thing you can't knock is their talent ID.
Leeds are expected to add to Daniel Farke's squad in January, and the winger position is one they hope to address. The switch to a 3-5-2 in recent weeks has hammered down the squad's struggles in this area of the pitch, which is why there is such a desire to make a signing or two here. Noah Okafor was the only recognised winger brought to Elland Road in the summer, but he has struggled since his move from AC Milan.
