Daniel Farke was taken aback by what the £11 million footballer performed before Leeds United sold him this summer.

Leeds United boss Daniel Farke was taken aback when he learned that Maximilian Wober would be leaving the club this summer.

According to a report by The Athletic, Wober has signalled his desire to remain with Leeds in the Championship.

According to the information, Wober went to Farke 24 hours before a pre-season friendly versus Monaco.

Wober stated that he had changed his mind and would accept a contract with Borussia Monchengladbach.

Of course, Leeds’ back line looks solid even without the £11 million Austrian.

Despite a poor performance against Southampton, Farke‘s defence has been rock solid in recent weeks.

Leeds have now preserved four clean sheets in their previous five games, with Joe Rodon, Liam Cooper, and Pascal Struijk all performing admirably.

Furthermore, given that they are all names that would not seem out of place in the Premier League, it should come as no surprise.

Despite the loss of all the players Farke and Leeds have lost this summer, including Wober, they still have a roster capable of achieving promotion.

Farke‘s Leeds defence has performed admirably without Wober.
Although Leeds appear to be well-set centrally, Wober could have been useful as a left-back option in these early months.

Sam Byram has been doing an amazing job, but he is playing out of position, while Junior Firpo is still sidelined.

Otherwise, it’s a Leeds side that is beginning to appear more settled.

Farke’s men will host Queens Park Rangers tonight, and they will be determined to put on a better performance.

Georginio Rutter has shown a lot of potential in recent weeks, and Leeds now expects him to deliver on a consistent basis.

Leeds aren’t missing players like Wober since they are a new team, but Farke’s team needs a positive reaction today.
