Out eight to 10 weeks

Rodon (hamstring) will be sidelined for eight-to-10 weeks with a serious hamstring injury, according to coach Daniel Farke, per Leeds Live. "Bad news with Joe. Serious hamstring injury. Out for eight to 10 weeks."

Analysis: Rodon's injury is a significant blow to Leeds after the center-back was forced off just 34 minutes into Sunday's draw against Brentford. The confirmed timeline will keep him out of Saturday's clash against Brighton and potentially through much of the next two months. Nico Elvedi, who replaced Rodon against Brentford and earned praise from manager Daniel Farke, is expected to step into the starting XI at center-back during his extended absence.

Suffers hamstring injury

Rodon was forced off in the 34th minute of Sunday's 1-1 draw against Brentford after suffering a hamstring injury, according to coach Daniel Farke, per Leeds Live. "Rodon got a hamstring injury. Very painful injury, Hopefully it's not too long. Happy with Elvedi. But big blow if he is not out for a while."

Analysis: Rodon's match was cut short after just 34 minutes due to what manager Daniel Farke described as a painful hamstring injury. The coach expressed hope that the center-back won't be sidelined for an extended period, though the severity of the issue and a potential recovery timeline remain unclear ahead of further assessment. Rodon's absence would be a significant blow to the back line if the injury proves serious, with Nico Elvedi expected to step into the starting XI at center-back for any matches he misses.
