Leeds United academy graduate Robbie Gotts is continuing to make a name for himself away from Elland Road on loan.

The versatile 21-year-old youngster, who has made three senior appearances for Leeds to date, secured a season-long switch to Lincoln on 15 October.

To date, Gotts has made eight appearances for the Imps, having had to bide his time for minutes initially as he was kept on the bench for a couple of games at the start of his stint.

Although the Whites gem was left on the bench in the 2-0 win at Rochdale last Saturday, he was back in the XI for Tuesday night’s EFL Trophy trip to Shrewsbury.

Gotts was once again deployed at right-back and once again he put in a superb display, looking dangerous on the counter and also carrying out his defensive duties well.

Lincoln ran out 4-1 winners in the end and looked comfortable throughout, the visitors scoring through Anthony Scully, Zachary Elbouzedi, Ramirez Howarth and Jorge Grant.

Gotts was given 8 out of 10 by Lincolnshire Live, who wrote: The Leeds loanee is getting better and better. A threat going forward and defended well too.”

The Leeds academy graduate got the same score last week after shining in the 2-1 win over Wigan.

TBR View:

Gotts is truly proving a cut above at Lincoln, delivering superb displays which have helped the team into the upper echelons of the table.

Marcelo Bielsa will surely be keeping tabs on him and, if he continues in the same trajectory, it certainly bodes well for his future at Elland Road.
