Jesse Marsch’s side face highflying La Liga outfit Real Sociedad at Elland Road tonight in a 7.45pm kick-off as both teams work their way back towards the resumption of their league campaigns. Ahead of the contest, Leeds have shared an inside training video which features both Brenden Aaronson and Rasmus Kristensen following their World Cup exploits with the USA and Denmark respectively.

Tyler Adams does not feature in the video but the Whites still have another 12 days until their return to Premier League action at home to Manchester City on Wednesday, December 28. Adams played a starring role for the USA as they progressed through the World Cup knockout stages before falling to a valiant 3-1 defeat to the Netherlands in the last 16.
