PlayerAdded won't run?

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
   I want to make a leaderstats script that makes a new folder and new value to put into the folder

2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
   Script doesn’t detect that a player has joined the game

3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
   Looked on devforum and could find no solutions

local DSS = game:GetService("DataStoreService")
local DataStore = DSS:GetDataStore("leaderstats")

function loadleaderstats(player)
	print(player.Name.." has joined the game")
	local leaderstats = Instance.new("Folder")
	leaderstats.Parent = player
	leaderstats.Name = "leaderstats"

	local coins = Instance.new("IntValue")
	coins.Parent = leaderstats
	coins.Name = "Coins"

	local loadedstats = DataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId)

	if loadedstats ~= nil then
		coins.Value = loadedstats[1]
	else
		coins.Value = 100
	end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(loadleaderstats)
