Leeds have a phenomenal academy and a brilliant track record when it comes to using academy graduates in the first-team.
Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has shown that he’s prepared to give youth a chance. The likes of Ben White, Jamie Shackleton and Kalvin Phillips have all become important players for the side since Bielsa took charge.
This is a great move for Galloway’s development and he’ll be hoping to get some first-team minutes for Leeds in the not so distant future.
