Farke Rules Out Three For Leeds’ Trip To Man United

The injuries leave a thin squad under pressure near the bottom.

Overview

  • Daniel Farke confirmed Thursday that Anton Stach, Joe Rodon and Dan James will miss Monday’s match at Old Trafford with ankle and adductor injuries.
  • The manager listed Jaka Bijol, Noah Okafor and Gabi Gudmundsson as doubts, though the late kickoff offers extra time to prove fitness.
  • Farke said Stach and Rodon have ligament damage and are unlikely to return in April, with a May comeback viewed as realistic.
  • He pledged a front-foot plan at Manchester United and said Leeds will not park the bus.
  • Leeds reached the FA Cup semi-final after a shootout win at West Ham, and injuries from that tie now shape plans for a team four points above the relegation zone and short on league wins since Christmas.
