The Whites will welcome back Junior Firpo to the fold but Joe Gelhardt misses out the trip to Leicester City
Leeds United and Daniel Farke will be buoyed by Junior Firpo's return to training ahead of their trip to Leicester City on Friday night. The Whites have rotated their options at left-back throughout the course of the campaign, with Firpo missing the start of the season through injury.
It's unlikely Firpo will start at the King Power given his time out, but Farke said he could return to the matchday squad. "I think this week was good for him because it's been the proper training week, before it was just travelling," he said in his Wednesday press conference.
Farke will still be without Djed Spence and Stuart Dallas for the clash with the table toppers, while Joe Rodon, Crysencio Summerville and Sam Byram have been doubts, but Farke said he is confident they will be available. Joe Gelhardt will also miss the game against the Foxes having fractured his hand in training this week.
"This week was his first proper training week. He's edging closer and no setback. He's in the mix and available. There were a few players with concerns in the last game, Joe Rodon, Sam Byram and Cree Summerville, yes I substituted all three of them.
