Leeds defender Rodon ruled out for up to 10 weeks with hamstring injury
Leeds United have confirmed that centre-back Joe Rodon has sustained a hamstring injury that will sideline him for up to 10 weeks. The Welsh defender, on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, has been a key part of Leeds' back line this season. His absence leaves the club short of options at centre-back during a crucial period of the campaign, potentially forcing manager Daniel Farke to reshuffle his defensive setup or rely on squad depth.
Read the full story at bbc.co.ukLosing Joe Rodon for up to 10 weeks is a major setback for Leeds United. The centre-back has been a defensive cornerstone, and his absence — spanning potentially a third of the remaining season — leaves Daniel Farke with a significant gap to fill at the heart of the back line. With Leeds likely to be in a promotion battle in the Championship, the timing of the injury is particularly difficult, and it may accelerate the need for defensive reinforcements in the January window or demand that fringe players step up.
