What happened. Leeds United manager Daniel Farke confirmed that centre-back Joe Rodon will be out for eight to 10 weeks due to a serious hamstring injury sustained in the draw against Brentford.

Rodon was forced off after 34 minutes against Brentford.
He will miss the next international break, affecting Wales.
Farke says the injury puts pressure on the team to sign a wing-back.

“Bad news, serious hamstring injury. He will be out for eight to 10 weeks.”

Rodon's absence may prompt Leeds to act in the January transfer window, and it also impacts Wales' Nations League fixtures.
