Dr. Rajpal Brar, a specialist in injuries, is a welcome addition to our exclusive writer lineup. He will provide his thoughts on Leeds United’s injury situation every week.
Stuart Dallas, a midfielder for Leeds United, could potentially make a comeback from his injury, according to Dr. Rajpal Brar.
Even if he has been sidelined for a few years, which is a lengthy time, the injury expert argues that it is premature to conclude that he will hang up his boots.
The 32-year-old’s final appearance for Leeds came against Manchester City in 2022, and he remained inactive for the entire 22–23 season.
Physical therapist and sports scientist Brar, who spoke exclusively to MOT Leeds News, described Dallas as follows: “Dallas sustained a fracture of the ‘femoral’, the largest weight-bearing bone in the body and the thigh bone.
“I believe he’s suffered multiple setbacks during his return as well.
“The injury sounded quite serious when it happened and is quite rare in football so an extended timeline wasn’t surprising but now going on two years, it’s difficult to rule anyone out of returning but that’s a long time to be away from the game – you’re losing fitness, confidence, and rhythm as well.“
Dallas has been sidelined for 16 months due to an injury, but Leeds has said they won’t rush him back into play.
He did experience a number of setbacks in overcoming a femoral fracture, as was already mentioned.
He yet continues to assist first-team players and young players at Thorp Arch in a variety of ways while working in the background.

American media comment on Brenden Aaronson’s performance for Leeds United against Uzbekistan.
Brenden Aaronson, a loanee from Leeds United, participated for the USA in their victory over Uzbekistan on September 9.
In the 67th minute of the friendly against the Central Asian team, the 22-year-old, who is now on loan at Union Berlin, came off the bench to set up a goal as his team earned a 3-0 victory.
Weston McKennie, a former Whites loanee, joined the midfielder on the American squad. Christian Pulisic, Ricardo Pepi, and Timothy Weah scored the goals.
The MLS Soccer website said Aaronson brought a “spark of energy” as he recorded the assist for the second goal with a “tidy little pass” on the edge of the box. US news sites have since responded to Aaronson’s performance.
The midfielder wasn’t quite as impressive to NBC Sports, who claimed that he was a touch “herky-jerky” and “out of control” since he couldn’t finish a dribble and lost most of his duels.
The only thing ESPN said about the American’s performance was that he brought his “trademark energy” as he went on to set up Pepi’s goal at Missouri’s CityPark Stadium in the 91st minute.
As expected
The fact that Aaronson’s primary contribution to the game was his high level of energy won’t really come as much of a surprise.
In his time at Elland Road last season, the midfielder demonstrated that, but he was mainly ineffective in the final third, scoring just once and providing three assists in 40 appearances.
But in his quest to earn a spot in the starting lineup for the US national team, he will have been happy to have contributed an assist.
Aaronson had a generally lackluster first few games with Union Berlin, so it wasn’t too surprising that he wasn’t started right away.
The midfielder has played in three games, but he was dismissed after just 21 minutes of a recent Bundesliga match against Darmstadt, which might make him unpopular in the nation’s capital.
