Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford has sent a three-word message on Instagram after returning to training at Thorp Arch.

Bamford returned to training on Wednesday, with the Leeds and England international striker having been on the sidelines since December 2021.

New Leeds head coach Jesse Marsch has already said that Bamford will not be fit to play against Leicester City in the Premier League this weekend.

However, it is likely that the striker could be available thereafter, and the former Middlesbrough man has posted the following message on Instagram, which suggests that he could be back in action soon.

Patrick Bamford big for Leeds United

In our view, Bamford’s potential return to action in the coming days will be big for Leeds.

Leeds have badly missed the Englishman, who is the best number 9 at the club.

The 28-year-old has scored two goals and provided two assists in five Premier League starts for the West Yorkshire club so far this season.

Leeds are in real danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season.

And, in our opinion, Bamford will have to play a big role if the Whites are to retain their Premier League status for next season.
