Ian Carlo Poveda: Leeds looking for a loan and MLS shows interest | Colombians Abroad

Although he is one of the desired ones in the teams that he has been to during his time in the imposing and competitive Premier League, the truth is that Ian Carlo Poveda has not finished congealing within a league that in England they say is his great physique. problem to fit in this competition.

Ian Carlo Poveda is 22 years old, and despite the fact that he was born in Southwark, England, he has Colombian nationality from his parents. Poveda is one of those players who, like Eddy Salcedo, have not finished exploiting and are still possible candidates to reach the national team. Both players have already had experience with Italy and England respectively in the youth teams.

In the case of Ian Carlo Poveda, he has participated from the U-16 to the U-20, but he still has the latent dream of being able to represent Colombia or England in the senior team. However, Poveda has lost a lot of prominence in the UK. His beginnings date back to Manchester City, but Leeds United signed him in 2020.

With Marcelo Bielsa he managed to stay for a while, but it was not a usual letter for the Argentine strategist either. With Jesse Marsch, history repeated itself. It is one of the wishes of the strategist, but he could not materialize and he went to Blackburn Rovers where he was last season.

Thus, they do not want to completely part with the British winger from a Colombian family, but instead seek to send him on loan to a league where he can be a regular starter and gain experience for a return to the Premier. Without interest, they are looking for a possible exit to Major League Soccer where there are already several Colombians.

The Leeds Press newspaper maintained that Jesse Marsch wants to have Ian Carlo Poveda when he is physically recovered, ‘in his few minutes with Leeds, Poveda has been skillful with the ball, but the physicality of the Premier League has been too much, since that the defenses have pushed him with ease, and his final performance has also left a lot to be desired’.

The Leeds Press added, ‘Marsch is said to want to keep Poveda beyond this season but is willing to let him go on loan as there is interest from England, Spain and the United States. Given Poveda’s obvious talent, this seems like the best option, and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him drawn to the lure of the United States.’
