Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams has had hamstring surgery and faces an extended period on the sidelines, the PA news agency understands.
Adams, who missed the Premier League win at Wolves 10 days ago, has undergone a “non-invasive” procedure after consulting a specialist.
Leeds are assessing the 24-year-old USA skipper’s progress, but are still waiting to learn how much of this season’s run-in he is likely to miss.
Adams has played a key role for Leeds since joining from RB Leipzig in July for a reported £20million, starting in all of his 24 league appearances, and his absence is a major blow in their bid to avoid relegation.
