# Leeds: Mateusz Klich eyeing up Whites exit in January

**[Leeds United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-news/) midfielder Mateusz Klich is ‘frustrated’ at the club and wants to leave in the January transfer window, according to transfer insider [Dean Jones](https://twitter.com/DeanJonesSoccer?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor).**

### The Lowdown: Klich out of favour

The 32-year-old has been an important figure for the Whites down the years, helping them return to the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) and making [192 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mateusz-klich/alletore/spieler/92738) in total.

This season, however, Klich [hasn’t made a single league start](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/69638/Show/Mateusz-Klich) under Jesse Marsch, coming on 11 times as a substitute and totalling just 188 minutes of action.

It has led to [speculation](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-news/leeds-mateusz-klich-wanted-abroad/) regarding the Pole’s future and a fresh update suggests a move could be on the cards.

### The Latest: Midfielder wants move

Speaking to [*Give Me Sport*](https://www.givemesport.com/88086824-leeds-transfer-news-frustrated-wants-leave-elland-road), Jones claimed that Klich will be pushing to leave Elland Road once January comes around:

> “It’s just personal preference really. This is the kind of thing that happens when you change manager and Klich has kind of been a victim of that switch.
>
> “He is very frustrated, he is looking for a transfer when we get to January, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he ends up getting one.”

### The Verdict: Best for all parties

In truth, this feels like a decision that would benefit everyone, with Marsch clearly not seeing Klich as an important starter moving forward, especially given his age.

A move away from Leeds would allow the veteran to enjoy more regular playing time elsewhere, while the Whites may earn a transfer fee, with his current deal [running out](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mateusz-klich/profil/spieler/92738) in 2024.

Klich has been a great servant at Elland Road, being [described](https://motleedsnews.com/news/epitome-of-what-marcelo-has-done-sky-sports-pundit-identifies-leeds-unsung-hero/) as ‘wonderful’ by David Prutton, but now is the time for him to be granted his wish and be sold, although a replacement would likely to needed to retain squad depth before the summer window.
