Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa says he won't seek to pressure England coach Gareth Southgate over Luke Ayling.

The defender has been mentioned as a potential England inclusion this week.

Bielsa said, "He's one of the players that has shone the most in our team.

"He's a player that can play out wide or in the center. In a back four or back three. He has the capacity to attack and good aerial game.

"He has a good management of the ball and first pass. All of this analysis, anyone who watches him regularly can make. I'm only describing the resources that he has. When you talk about a player who can potentially be picked for the national team, you can interpret the reference as trying to induce the manager. And in no way do I want to be in that situation. The thing is , the questions lead you to say things you don't want to."
