Leeds United centre-back Joe Rodon is set to be sidelined for about eight to 10 weeks with a hamstring injury. Leeds manager Daniel Farke says the injury is serious and rules the defender out in the near term.

Rodon had been involved in the start of Leeds’ current season, having started the first two matches of the campaign. Last season, he made 33 Premier League appearances, indicating he played a regular role for the club before the injury. The reports focus on the expected recovery timeframe, while the specific medical details and match-by-match implications beyond his absence are not expanded on in the available coverage.
