Manor Solomon may have to clear a late fitness test ahead of Leeds United against Norwich City on 1 October at Carrow Road, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.

The injury expert claims that if the 25-year-old is to feature on Tuesday, he would need to already be back in training after his hamstring setback.

Daniel Farke stated that he hopes to have the Israeli winger back for the games against Norwich and Sunderland (4 October) and also that his back issues have caused the injury to his hamstring.

Brar said: "Can’t really say if it’s a big risk to throw him into the starting eleven or not because he’s dealing with back problems – those have a lot of variance and have even impacted his hamstring.

"If he’s in contention for next week, he would likely go through training with the team and then his response would be evaluated by the club physios.

"I still think he’ll need to clear a fitness test 24-48 hours before the game.”

Manor Solomon is unlikely to start for Leeds United v Norwich City

Solomon may not start on his first game back from injury but can be brought off the bench by Farke.

It remains to be seen whether or not he's joined training and if he hasn't yet, he's perhaps unlikely to play any role against Norwich on 1 October.

There's still a possibility of him returning before the injury break and Leeds are seeming to take it one day at a time with his return.
