Phil Hay shares injury news latest on Patrick Bamford and Luis Sinisterra at Leeds United
The Athletic journalist Phil Hay has shared that Leeds United duo Patrick Bamford and Luis Sinisterra are still waiting in the wings to return to action.
Bamford’s struggles with injuries have been plain to see whilst Sinisterra has also been plagued with unfortunate knocks and spells on the sidelines.
With the Whites struggling for creativity up top at the moment, the return of Bamford is essential, whilst the classy Sinisterra’s pacey play also wouldn’t go amiss.
“Gracia has other attacking assets available and others waiting in the wings,” said Hay as quoted by The Athletic. (7 March)
“Bamford and Luis Sinisterra are both recovering from injuries of their own.”
Barren.
Georginio Rutter has yet to find the back of the net since joining from Hoffenheim in January with Bamford’s only league goal of the season coming a long eight weeks ago.
Jack Harrison and Brenden Aaronson’s form in front of goal has been poor too with neither of the attacking threats getting in on the act since August.
Crysencio Summerville hasn’t scored since November either, so just where are Leeds United going to get their goals from this season?
It’s something that never worried the Elland Road faithful with the defensive frailties of the team being the main concern in recent times.
However, since Rodrigo’s injury, the Whites have gone on a barren spell in front of goal and it’s something that could well relegate the club if they don’t get their act together soon.
The Spaniard returning to play under his former Valencia manager has never been needed more and his knack for poking in a goal or two this campaign has been missed since Gracia’s arrival.
Getting Rodrigo back in the mix is essential for the Whites, hopefully, he’ll be back playing in the coming weeks.
In other Leeds United news, Andrea Radrizzani and Angus Kinnear have both proven they live in fantasy land at this club with what they’ve done now.
