Mateo Joseph once again showcased his impressive form with the Spain U21 team, scoring a goal in their 2-2 draw against The Czech Republic. This performance was in stark contrast to his goal-scoring struggles at Leeds United.
Despite giving Spain the lead with a powerful left-footed strike, Joseph’s opponents quickly turned the tables. The game ended in a 2-2 draw, with Spain managing to equalize in the late stages.
The striker, who has only scored three goals for Leeds this season, has found more success with Spain’s U21 squad, netting six times. Despite playing second fiddle to Joel Piroe at Leeds, Joseph remains a valuable asset.
Rumors suggest that Joseph may return to Spain soon, especially after Real Betis made a failed £10m bid for him in January. Speaking about his youth club, Santander, Joseph expressed his admiration and revealed that he still follows their matches.
While his club form may be lacking, Joseph’s dedication and passion for playing with the Spain U21 team is evident. With his sights set on a potential call-up to the senior squad for the 2026 World Cup, Joseph is determined to continue his impressive performances for his country. His focus now shifts to representing Spain against Germany’s U21 squad, as Leeds fans hope he can replicate his international success at the club level.
