Leeds United injury list and return dates in full with three games left to save season

Just 270 minutes of the Premier League season remain for Leeds United. It is do or die time for Sam Allardyce after the former England boss was parachuted in a week ago, with the club knowing that their top-flight fate is not in their own hands.

Monday night saw both Everton and Nottingham Forest move ahead of the Whites, who now sit 19th in the Premier League table, two points off safety. A three-match sprint to the line starts with a home clash against Newcastle United on Saturday, with a trip to West Ham following before Leeds host Tottenham on the final day of the campaign.

Leeds have not had especially good injury luck this season and are likely to have some key absentees again this weekend.

Ahead of Allardyce's pre-match press conference, here is a look at the current injury situation at the club.

Liam Cooper (hip/knock)

What Allardyce said (May 5): "I've only got [Stuart] Dallas, [Tyler] Adams, [Luis] Sinisterra and [Liam] Cooper injured. The rest around that will be picking a team and a system today."

Pushed further on whether or not Cooper would play again for Leeds this season, the 68-year-old was tight-lipped with his response.

"I have no idea," he added. "There's no disrespect but I haven't really focused on that as I was told he wouldn't be fit for this game. So I've only been focused on the players who would be fit for this match."

Potential Return Date: Unknown.

Luis Sinisterra (ankle)

What Gracia said (April 28): "Luis is out for the rest of the season. No I don't think so [a repeat of his previous injury], it's something in his ankle, in the ligament."

Potential Return Date: Out for the rest of the season.

Tyler Adams (hamstring)

What Gracia said (April 20): "No if I tell you something I'd be lying [if he knows whether Tyler Adams will play again this season]. I don't know. He's working hard, and the medical staff are working very well. We need time to know if he is ready or not."

Potential Return Date: N/A

Stuart Dallas (leg)

What Gracia said (March 1): " Working to recover [his] best condition, but working out of the team, so I can't tell you more info. Of course, I want them to be ready ASAP, but in this case, I'm not sure the time [he] needs to be back with the team."

Since Gracia's last update Dallas travelled with the squad for the Fulham and Manchester City matches, raising hope that he is nearing a return.

Potential Return Date: N/A
