Leeds United striker Ryan Edmondson sent to learn from former Whites manager next season

Leeds United striker Ryan Edmondson will spend next season gaining first-team experience under former Whites player and manager Simon Grayson.

The 20-year-old has joined League One Fleetwood Town managed by Grayson, for next season.

It will be the third loan spell of the York City product's career. Last season was split between Aberdeen and League One Northampton Town. He scored two goals in each spell, which totalled 16 starts and 21 substitute appearances in all competitions.
