Leeds United Suffer 'Blow' With New Injury for 'Electric' Star

Patrick Bamford's Season in Jeopardy After Fresh Setback

Leeds United have been dealt a major blow with the news that Patrick Bamford has suffered a fresh injury setback.

The striker, who has been plagued by injuries throughout his career, limped off during the first half of Leeds' pre-season friendly against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Initial reports suggest that Bamford has suffered a hamstring injury, which could rule him out for several weeks.

This is a major blow for Leeds, who are already without Rodrigo and Joe Gelhardt due to injury.

Bamford has been in impressive form for Leeds during pre-season, scoring three goals in four appearances.

His absence will be a big loss for Leeds, who are looking to build on last season's ninth-place finish.

Leeds are now likely to be in the market for a new striker before the start of the season.
