What's being said about Harry Wilson's Leeds United injury after latest from BBC journalist

Harry Wilson was out injured as Leeds United drew against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

The Wales international was unavailable as Daniel Farke's team drew 0-0 with the Eagles on 20 September.

Noah Okafor started up front alongside Dominic Calvert-Lewin and was arguably the Whites' standout player at home on the day.

Wilson has failed to live up to expectations at Elland Road after signing on a free transfer.

The West Yorkshire outfit completed what many felt was a coup in signing the former Fulham attacker.

After making 17 Premier League goal contributions last season, the 29-year-old has yet to replicate that form in LS11 and has now picked up a knock.

When Harry Wilson could return from injury at Leeds United

Wilson certainly won't be happy with his start at Leeds after starting just one league fixture.

The Welshman has had to mostly settle for minutes off the bench, with other players seemingly ahead in the pecking order.

It's clear the winger needs time to settle into Farke's style of play, but the early signs haven't been encouraging.

With the three-week international break underway, the attacker's injury likely won't miss much action for the West Yorkshire outfit.

Wilson has been withdrawn from the Wales squad for the upcoming Nations League matches, but could potentially be available when the Peacocks travel to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal on 10 October.

Speaking on Don't Go To Bed Just Yet on 21 September, BBC Sports journalist Adam Pope said, "He might be back after the international break, but will he be fit enough to play on the back of not having played for a few weeks?"

Why Harry Wilson has uphill battle at Elland Road

After Wilson's heroics at Fulham, he would have surely demanded a central role at Leeds before signing as a free agent.

So far, it looks like Farke prefers other options up front as he continues with a 5-3-2 formation, which has brought the Whites success since last season.

The Wales international mostly played out wide on the right for the Cottagers last season in a 4-2-3-1 setup, but his role has changed since joining the West Yorkshire outfit.

Okafor seems better suited to Farke's system after playing with Calvert-Lewin for over a year now.

Wilson may need to be patient about his opportunities at Elland Road and learn what the German manager wants from him sooner rather than later.
