The Leeds United players selected by their countries for the upcoming international break

Leeds United will have a number of their squad in action during the upcoming international break.

The Premier League will pause after the conclusion of this weekend's matches until the beginning of April as players once again team up with their national squads. The latest round of European Championship qualifiers will see countries start to prepare for the 2024 Euros in Germany next year.

England will of course be looking to go one step further than their Wembley heartbreak against Italy in 2021, where the Three Lions agonisingly lost on penalty shoot-outs during the final in the nation's capital.

But for Leeds, there will be interest in plenty of other countries with fans keeping tabs on the announcements of various teams as their multi-national squad represent an array of footballing nations all in action later this month.

With that in mind, LeedsLive has put together the latest list of those members of the Whites squad who have been called up by their national sides ahead of the upcoming international break and who they are set to face later this month.

Brenden Aaronson and Weston McKennie

Both Aaronson and McKennie have been selected for the United States' CONCACAF Nations League double-header against Grenada and El Salvador.

Liam Cooper

Leeds' club captain has had an injury-filled season but appears to be on the road to recovery after he was selected for Scotland's upcoming matches against Cyprus and Spain. Cooper has not played for the Whites since the beginning of February but will be eager to get back to full fitness during the international break.

Max Wober

The January signing has hit the ground running and formed a fine partnership alongside Robin Koch at the heart of the Leeds defence. Wober's performances have now seen him called up to be part of the Austria squad set to take on Azerbaijan and Estonia in their qualifying matches.

Kristoffer Klaesson and Leo Hjelde

Klaesson and Hjelde have both been selected for Norway's U21 side for their games against the Netherlands and Portugal, as the young duo look to team-up as part of their national team's defensive unit against two tough opponents.

Notable absentees

Rasmus Kristensen has missed out on a place in the Denmark squad after losing his spot in the Leeds United starting XI in recent weeks.

Tyler Adams will also be absent from the USMNT squad after he picked up a hamstring injury in training.
