Hide AdKlich was being linked with a loan exit, but reports emerged this week claiming Marsch has blocked that notion.
The midfielder’s agent, as cited by LUFCFanZone, has said: “Mateusz always wanted to stay at Leeds, however he wanted regular playing time before Poland’s World Cup.
“However, following his game against Wolves as a number 10, as well as his bond with the Leeds supporters, he now feels that he can continue to be a part of the team.
“Jesse would never block him from a move away from the club, however both the manager and Mateusz are happy to continue at Leeds.”

Hide AdWagner interest
Leeds are said to be keen on a deal for Philadelphia’s Kai Wagner this summer.
According to Manuel Veth, Wagner has attracted Marsch’s attention, with Leeds potentially needing more cover at full-back.
It’s being reported that Leeds United, Benfica, Dinamo Zagreb and Stuttgart are all expressing an interest, but Dinamo have the best offer on the table.
Still, Leeds are seen as the most attractive destination, and that could give them the advantage this summer.
