A Leeds player teases on Instagram that Daniel Farke has called him up for the first time.

Following his injury recovery, Junior Firpo is expected to make his Leeds United return.

The defender has hinted that he will be in the squad with a recent Instagram story post.

Firpo has missed every one of the 16 games in every competition so far this season due to injury. However, the 27-year-old has resumed training, and Leeds Live has confirmed that he will be part of the Leeds team.

When the £13 million defender arrived at Leeds from Barcelona in 2021, he faced criticism during his tenure at Elland Road. e. A lack of momentum, injuries, and several managers haven’t helped.

Like several Leeds players, Firpo might benefit from the Championship’s relegation. He will undoubtedly benefit from us being in the lead since he is far more successful attacking than defending.

He will undoubtedly find it challenging to break into the team right now because Sam Byram is the star on the left side of defence. However, based on his Friday, pre-game Instagram post, it appears that he is involved.

Junior Firpo makes a hint that he will be playing for Leeds United tonight.
There is a problem on the right side of defence, even though Firpo might take some time to break into the team. Jamie Shackleton is starting at the moment, and Luke Ayling appears to be warming the bench.

There, Archie Gray has also performed. Daniel Farke only has to choose one player on Friday night—who plays on the right side. But ultimately, after Firpo reaches 100%, it’s possible that Byram resolves the problem.

By utilising his stronger side, Firpo would be able to enter on the left side. However, Firpo is expected to start tonight for Leeds as a substitute, with Byram starting at left defence and Shackleton most likely on the right.
