Leeds United have been dealt a major blow as Daniel Farke has confirmed that they will be missing a key man for the foreseeable future, adding to their hefty injury woes at Elland Road. Despite the departure of midfield duo Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev, the Yorkshire side has continued their strong early season form in the Championship.
However, a new injury has dented the good feeling in west Yorkshire. Largie Ramazani, one of the side’s brightest talents so far this season, will be out for at least a month with a serious ligament injury.
The Belgian midfielder, who has managed three goals and one assist in eight Championship outings, was last seen limping off the pitch with an ankle injury just 10 minutes after opening the scoring against Watford, as Leeds edged past the Hertfordshire club 2-1.
“We hope for not a bad injury, we deserve a bit of luck,” Farke said after the game, but those hopes have been dashed, with the German confirming that Ramazani will miss at least seven games, including the upcoming clash with Bristol City on Saturday.
The worst-case scenario for the Belgian’s return is towards the end of November, while he could be sidelined until December, depending on the pace of his rehabilitation. His injury is a significant blow to Leeds, but the side will be boosted by the returns of Manor Solomon and Dan James from injury, providing Farke with a ready replacement for the mercurial midfielder.
Despite the setbacks, Leeds remain in a strong position, with a healthy lead over the chasing pack in the Championship table. As they prepare to face Bristol City on Saturday, the Yorkshire side will be hopeful that they can continue their strong form and build on their current momentum.
In the short term, the injury will undoubtedly be a blow, but Leeds will be grateful for the relative ease of their upcoming fixtures compared to those they have already played this season. With Farke’s side showing significant depth, they will be confident of navigating the injury crisis and emerging stronger on the other side.
