Some Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the news that Rodrigo will not play against Manchester United.
Leeds will take on United at Elland Road in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
Head coach Marcelo Bielsa has said in a pre-match press conference at Thorp Arch this morning that attacker Rodrigo is out.
The 30-year-old, who can also operate as a striker or as a winger, has been suffering with a muscle injury and is in the last stages of his recovery.
Bielsa told Leeds Live this morning: “Rodrigo is in the last stages of his recovery but not well enough to feature this weekend.”
Some Leeds fans are getting frustrated with the situation of Rodrigo, as shown below.
Signed from Valencia in the summer of 2020, the Spain international has not made a huge impact at Elland Road.
According to WhoScored, the attacker has made 12 starts and nine substitute appearances in the league for the Whites so far this season, scoring three goals and providing one assist in the process.
90min reported earlier this month that Leeds are keen on selling Rodrigo this summer, although the attacker has made it clear on Instagram that he does not plan to leave.
