Leeds United and Bournemouth arranged a swap deal in the summer, but neither player have been fruitful at their respective loan clubs. Sinisterra has played nine times in the top flight this season, starting just once. During that time he has scored one and assisted another
Similarly, Anthony has fallen down the pecking order behind a multitude of wingers at Leeds United manager Daniel Farke’s disposal. The 24-year-old has appeared in 16 games, making two starts and scoring once.
TEAMtalk reports that the Whites are considering recalling Sinisterra from his loan agreement in January, with Anthony returning the opposite way.
If the Colombian is to return to Elland Road it is uncertain whether he would be reintegrated back into the first-team fold or whether they would look for another loan move elsewhere. Anthony could also suffer a similar crossroads moment at Bournemouth, and another Championship side may be willing to take a punt in January if he is recalled.
An exciting proposition
Leeds United have one of the greatest front lines in the competition, and having Sinisterra as an option will help them reach their ultimate aim of regaining promotion to the Premier League.
Having the likes of Dan James, Georginio Rutter, Joel Piroe, Crysencio Summerville, Willy Gnonto, Ian Poveda, and Patrick Bamford on their books currently looks sensational, but reintroducing £21m Sinisterra into the mix not only creates a selection headache for Farke but also poses a worrying proposition to any other clubs competing with Leeds United in the second tier.
The reason for his departure in the summer could be excessive salary or a desire to play at the highest level, and if this is the case, the club may consider releasing him look to move him on again to a club in the Premier League. Given his potential and quality, there is likely to be a number of suitors.
