Jamie Shackleton will miss Leeds United's game at home to Bristol City on Saturday, potentially causing a problem at left-back.
It is a position which has caused headaches at Elland Road for so long. Sam Byram has been filling in for the injued Junior Firpo, but manager Daniel Farke has been wary in the past of playing him three times in a week. He has not ruled that out this time, arguing the schedule is kinder with two home games better spaced out.
'Jamie will certainly miss the game, the shoulder is too painful, we need some further assessment,' said Farke. 'I hope he's available on the other side of the international break. 'It's definitely bad news. 'With Sam Byram we'll have to see, we'll make a late call. The situation is slightly better than last time because he's more and more in his rhythm.
