The winger has not played for Leeds United since August.
Some Leeds United fans are excited by Pablo Hernandez’s latest social media post.
Hernandez – who has not played for Leeds at any level since the final week of August – was tipped to return during Friday’s Under-23 team fixture against Burnley at Elland Road.
But whereas fellow injury victims Gaetano Berardi and Kemar Roofe did feature in that game – in doing so putting themselves in contention to feature for Leeds at Blackburn Rovers on Saturday – the Spaniard was nowhere to be seen, causing some Whites supporters to worry.
Hernandez however posted the following message on Wednesday:
And several of a Leeds persuasion believe he could be back for the trip to Ewood Park…
There is, of course, always one…
Leeds have only won two of a possible eight matches since Hernandez got injured.
The 33-year-old had scored three goals and assisted another two in his five league outings this season.
Does Hernandez’s absence explain Leeds’ recent slump?
