Leeds United Star Dealing with ‘Knee Problems’
Leeds United's Max Wober is dealing with knee issues that caused him to miss Austria's 2-1 loss to Norway on Monday night.
The 26-year-old center-back recently played 90 minutes for Austria against Slovenia, despite dealing with a calf injury.
However, he remained an unused substitute in Austria’s defeat to Norway on Monday, and it has now been revealed that he is dealing with a different issue.
The defender, who has yet to feature in a Championship game for Leeds this season, has been patiently awaiting his opportunity in the starting lineup.
Unfortunately, his wait might be extended due to physical setbacks that arose during the international break.
The Leeds United star is currently struggling with knee problems.
According to Austrian newspaper Kronen Zeitung, the defender did not play against Norway because of these knee issues.
Despite his lack of game time at Leeds, he has earned 28 caps for Austria and remains an important figure for Ralf Ragnick’s national team.
The player is set to return to Leeds this week, ahead of their Championship match against Burnley at Elland Road on Saturday.
Leeds will evaluate his injury to determine whether he will be fit enough to make the squad for the upcoming game.
The Austrian defender remains eager to break into the Leeds starting lineup.
He recently expressed his willingness to be patient and acknowledged that he understands why manager Daniel Farke is hesitant to change the team’s current setup.
Despite rumors linking him with a departure, the defender decided to stay at Leeds, emphasizing his belief that the Whites are the strongest team in the Championship this season.
