Leeds United star could return against Man Utd

Daniel Farke has revealed Daniel James could return for Leeds United against Manchester United after making encouraging progress in training.

James had been sidelined of late but returned to the pitch with the squad on Thursday, giving him a chance of being involved this weekend.

“Daniel James was out for 10 days but since yesterday he had been back on the pitch with us,” Farke said.

“We have to see how his body reacts but he is back in training. It seems to be improved.

“There’s a chance that he’ll be involved.”

There was also an update on Joe Rodon, who remains unavailable but is continuing to make progress in his recovery.

“Progression,” Farke said.

“Joe will still miss this game, we are on week seven now so he is edging closer, good progress.

“It won’t be too long until he is in team training but not yet.”
