‘Won’t be available’… Leeds defender now ruled out for Plymouth match, and maybe Leicester
The 30-year-old Byram has undoubtedly been the season’s biggest surprise thus far. He rejoined with Farke in Leeds United training after first joining on trial, with the defender having struggled with injuries over the past few years.
Leeds awarded Byram a new one-year contract in recognition of his preseason and training results against teams like Nottingham Forest and Monaco. This season, he has already made 28 appearances. However, injuries too.
After a demanding schedule of games over the past two weeks, there have been a few nagging ailments. Farke said he might miss the next two games as he works to recover, according to the club’s YouTube channel.
“He won’t be available, he might not be back for Leicester; it would be the same as Patrick. It would be a nice little surprise if possible, but we will be without him for the next game and probably Leicester.”

Daniel Farke confirms Sam Byram will miss trip to Plymouth
Patrick Bamford, like Byram, is expected to miss tomorrow’s game and may not play against Leicester on Friday night, according to Farke’s confirmation. considering his recent performance, the latter a severe blow.
It is also a blow that Byram was left out. Archie Grey and Junior Firpo have cover at full-back now that Jamie Shackleton has returned from the birth of his kid and, of course, Connor Roberts has signed.
Losing Byram, whose contract is set to expire in June, does not spell doom for the player, but it does cast further question on his future for someone who is eager to sign a new contract at Leeds.
