Leeds United injury list in full as wide duo set to come into contention to start at Newcastle

Leeds United face a short turn around for their next Premier League match as they travel to another of the division's top three in Newcastle United. The Whites will have 48 hours less of recovery and preparation time than their opponents after they were beaten 3-1 by Manchester City on Wednesday.

Jesse Marsch may be tempted into making changes for their visit to St. James' Park, particularly with Tyler Adams available after suspension and both Crysencio Summerville and Jack Harrison in contention to start. So, with that in mind, here is a look at how Leeds' treatment room is looking ahead of the game on New Year's Eve.

Crysencio Summerville - foot

Summerville made the bench against City after playing just 10 minutes of Leeds' winter friendlies. The youngster was not risked, though, meaning he could come in to start against Newcastle.

What Marsch said (Dec 28): "Some of the decisions we made were to protect guys a little bit to make sure that with a quick turnaround in a busy couple of weeks that we can turn around quickly. Cree we just felt like we didn't want to push because we wanted to not risk him and the same with Jack Harrison."

Potential return date: 31/12/22

Jack Harrison - adductor

Like Summerville, Harrison missed Leeds' final two friendlies but was an unused substitute against City. Given how the game was poised, he was not risked but is more than in contention for Newcastle.

What Marsch said (Dec 28): "Some of the decisions we made were to protect guys a little bit to make sure that with a quick turnaround in a busy couple of weeks that we can turn around quickly. Cree we just felt like we didn't want to push because we wanted to not risk him and the same with Jack Harrison."

Potential return date: 31/12/22

Patrick Bamford - groin

Bamford missed the last two matches before the World Cup break with a hip injury but it was minor groin surgery that meant he did not travel to Spain. He then suffered with illness before the game against City and therefore was absent again, but it is unclear if he will make Newcastle.

What Marsch said (Dec 22): "So when he got sick, I think it disrupted his return into training, but we expect that he'll be back in training as well. Then it'll be, can we get him up to speed for the Man City match?"

Potential return date: 31/12/22

Luis Sinisterra - foot

Sinisterra missed the last three games before the break due to a foot injury, and went to Spain to do rehabilitation work. He is set to return to full training in the next two weeks.

What Marsch said (Dec 22): "Luis is making great progress, and we feel like he's on track. We have to be a little bit cautious with this injury, but we're hopeful that in a couple of weeks, he can be back in training."

Potential return date: 08/01/23

Stuart Dallas - leg

Like Sinisterra, Dallas also went to Spain to complete rehab work as he continues his recovery from a fractured femur. He was, however, forced to undergo a second surgery to 'clean some things up'.

What Marsch said (Dec 22): "Stuart actually had another surgery yesterday to kind of clean some things up. They felt that it was successful."

Potential return date: Unknown
