“Leeds” of the national Iliya Gruev is close to an immediate return to the English Premier League, from which it was relegated last year.
The Yorkshiremen are leading the provisional standings with 8 rounds to go before the end of the Championship season. First and second place send directly to the strongest championship in the world.
The publication the72.co.uk named three Leeds footballers who, with their performances during the current campaign, have shown that they are capable of playing in the Premier League. One of them is Gruev.
The other two are 18-year-old Archie Gray, who like Ilia is a holding midfielder but has played at right-back for most of the season for the Yorkshiremen, and attacking midfielder Jorginho Rueter.
“The 23-year-old Bulgarian international made a seamless transition from the Bundesliga to the Championship and could be one of those who will continue to a higher level and greater success in the coming years.
Iliya Gruev seems to have made the central midfield position his property at Ellen Road, especially since the start of the year, and his performance is unlikely to go unnoticed,” wrote Oliver Dixon in his article.
Our boy broke through after the New Year in the composition of “Leeds” and is currently a solid starter.
