Leeds United centre-forward Tyler Roberts has reportedly not sustained an injury.
Leeds United striker Tyler Roberts reportedly suffered no injury when he was substituted off in the first-half on Thursday night during a pre-season friendly with Guiseley.
According to the Yorkshire Evening Post on their daily blog, the 19-year-old was taken off after 38 minutes for a tactical reason and suffered no injury setback in the dramatic 4-3 victory.
It is understood that he was substituted with a view to him playing in the friendly against Spanish side Las Palmas on Sunday.
Roberts is yet to make his competitive first-team debut for Leeds since joining in January due to an injury and there was concern from some supporters that he had aggravated an issue against Guiseley.
However, he remains a part of Marcelo Bielsa’s plans and a strong display in the final pre-season games against Las Palmas will surely put him in contention for a spot in the first game of the new season.
The Whites are not blessed with a wealth lot of options in attack and the Welsh centre-forward will surely fancy his chances.
Roberts moved to Elland Road as a highly-rated talent from West Brom and has shown glimpses in this summer’s pre-season that he can be clinical in front of goal.
He has previously impressed out on loan in League One, but is yet to make his first Championship bow.
