Leeds United have received a huge boost in their hopes of retaining Luis Sinisterra, after an Instagram post revealed that the Colombian winger had a birthday party themed after the club. That might indicate the forward’s heart is currently at Elland Road, looking ahead to a challenging season of Championship football.

Leeds United’s Hopes of Retaining Luis Sinisterra Strengthen

Elland Road Receive Major Boost on Social Media

Sinisterra’s recent birthday saw the player celebrating on social media, with account DecorBalloon18 posting the decorations for his party. Many players don’t necessarily take their club lives into their personal lives, but this was far from the case with the South American’s event. With yellow and blue balloons, a Whites badge and the winger’s own face in a Leeds kit used in the event’s decorations, he clearly still has an affinity for the club. The key to any fans’ heart is passion for the club, so Elland Road fans will love this news.

Why Leeds United Want to Keep Luis Sinisterra

Leeds United want to keep the Colombian winger for obvious reasons, the first of which is the incredible quality that he showed in the Premier League. At 0.52 goals per 90, the winger is in the top 4% of wingers in the top five leagues, and that quality will surely translate to the EFL. In an injury-battered season, the wide player still put up incredible results, so with a full campaign he’d be sure to put up incredible numbers.

Interest in Luis Sinisterra

According to Colombian outlet AS, there is interest in the winger from both Germany and Spain, with the player clearly having enough quality for the top division. However, the report also notes that 49ers Enterprises, new owners of the club, will look to retain the player at all costs. They reportedly see him as crucial for the promotion push, with club leadership likely looking to get all the value they can out of the squad.
