Raphinha and Rodrigo fitness updates from Leeds United ahead of Brighton clash

Two more Leeds United fitness boosts have followed hot on the heels of yesterday’s update on Patrick Bamford and Robin Koch.

Raphinha and Rodrigo, who missed Sunday’s Tottenham Hotspur loss through illness and injury respectively, appear to be training with the main group once more.

In a video published on the club’s Instagram page this morning, the pair are each going through a series of low-octane drills with the rest of the senior squad at Thorp Arch.

The problems which kept the boys from Brazil out of Sunday’s game were understood to be minor and hopes were high they would be fit to face Brighton & Hove Albion this weekend.

This latest recording would suggest that plan remains on track with Rodrigo front and centre and Raphinha in the background of the clip.

Jamie Shackleton is also in the footage put out by the club which involves some simple passing moves and hurdle clearances.

Marcelo Bielsa will face the media tomorrow as he looks ahead to Saturday’s trip to East Sussex with updates on just how close Koch, Bamford, Raphinha, Rodrigo and Shackleton are to playing.
