Daniel James Making Steady Progress in Injury Recovery at Leeds United…….
Leeds United winger Daniel James is making encouraging progress in his recovery from the injury that sidelined him earlier this month. The Welsh international, who picked up a muscle strain during Leeds’ recent Championship fixture, has been undergoing a carefully managed rehabilitation program at Thorp Arch.
Manager Daniel Farke confirmed that the 26-year-old is responding well to treatment and could return to full training sooner than expected. “Daniel has been fantastic with his attitude,” Farke said. “He’s working tirelessly with the medical team, and we’re optimistic about his return in the coming weeks.”
James’ absence has been felt by Leeds, as his pace and direct attacking style have been key to the club’s early-season performances. The winger had been in fine form prior to the setback, contributing goals and assists that helped propel the Whites into the top half of the Championship table.
Medical staff are taking a cautious approach to avoid any recurrence of the injury, prioritizing long-term fitness over a rushed return. James has reportedly started light running and strength exercises as part of the second phase of his recovery, with a potential comeback expected before the end of October if progress continues.
Fans have shown strong support for the Welshman on social media, sending messages of encouragement as he works toward full fitness. His return is seen as crucial for Leeds’ promotion hopes, with Farke eager to have his attacking options at full strength ahead of a busy run of fixtures.
For now, Leeds will continue to monitor James’ condition closely, hopeful that their speedy winger will soon be back thrilling fans at Elland Road.
