Leeds forward wants to become a hero.
Leeds United striker Tyler Roberts has urged fans not to forget about him.
His Leeds career got off to a terrible start as he suffered a shin injury in his first training session and has been out of action ever since, with no return date set.
Now just perhaps, Roberts could be nearing a potential return.
Roberts posted a message on Instagram to his 18,000 followers, showing him in a training session for Leeds.
It is unclear when the photo was taken, but Roberts’ accompanying message, ‘Don’t sleep on me’, is an upbeat one.
A comeback for Roberts should not be rushed, but it could also not be better timed.
While striker Pierre-Michel Lasogga has played well over the past month, Leeds have struggled for form and there is a lot of anticipation to see what young striker Roberts can do.
Leeds’ play-off hopes are hanging by a thread. Having Roberts involved in midweek against Wolves seems like a long shot, but he could yet become a saviour for the team still.
