Leeds United have been dealt another injury blow after learning that Patrick Bamford injured himself in the aftermath of his leveller against Brentford.
The Daily Mail report that Leeds midfielder Kalvin Phillips two months out of action after going down with an injury against Brentford.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, there is more terrible news for Leeds with Bamford now on the treatment table again.
Bamford only returned from an ankle injury against Brentford having been out for nearly three months.
Bamford grabbed a dramatic last-gasp equaliser to really announce his return – but that’s where the problems have arisen.
The Leeds striker was spotted clutching his thigh after the wild goal celebrations, sparking new injury fears.
Bamford is now considered to be a doubt to face his former club Chelsea in the Premier League this weekend.
What an immense blow for Leeds.
Leeds haven’t quite looked as threatening going forward without Bamford.
His goalscoring return against Brentford left Leeds fans buzzing, not just for the moment itself but also for Bamford to get back playing again.
It now looks like Bamford will be out of action again though, compiling the misery for Leeds after the Phillips news.
