Daniel Farke names ‘magic’ Leeds ace in squad for first time in two matches as Josuha Guilavgoui decision made
Leeds United’s squad is looking a little depleted again heading into their upcoming Championship match at Bristol City.
The international break earlier this month had handed Leeds the opportunity to get a few bodies back but they will be without some key players at Ashton Gate.
Daniel Farke confirmed Largie Ramazani will miss the next four to six weeks due to suffering ankle ligament damage in the win over Watford, while Junior Firpo is also out through suspension.
They join Ethan Ampadu, Ilia Gruev and Max Wober on the sidelines, who all continue to recover from more long-term injury lay-offs.
Farke will be forced into making at least two changes to his Leeds starting XI against Bristol City having named unchanged line-ups in each of their last three matches.
Farke names Joe Gelhardt in squad as Guilavogui decision made
Despite losing Ramazani and Firpo this week, Leeds were able to welcome a fresh face into the squad as free agent Josuha Guilavogui signed on a short-term deal.
Guilavogui hasn’t played 90 minutes in almost seven months but has been in full team training with the rest of the Leeds squad throughout the last week or so.
According to Leeds Live, the 34-year-old has been named in the squad to face Bristol City on Saturday afternoon, in what will be a welcome boost to Farke’s bench.
