It’s fair to say Adam Forshaw’s season hasn’t gone to plan so far. The Leeds United midfielder is in the final year of his deal at Elland Road but he hasn’t had the chance to prove his worth with injuries getting the best of him once more.
Forshaw has made three appearances for the Whites, but last week’s win over Elche was the 31-year-old’s first run out since stepping off the bench against Brighton and Hove Albion back in August. It was a low key performance in Spain but he will have been happy to get 61 minutes under his belt as he looks to leave his latest injury issue behind him and finally get his season up and running.
His game time will continue to be managed, of course, but the midfielder is expected to be involved once more on Friday night against Real Sociedad and next week against Monaco, too, as the return of the Premier League campaign edges closer. He’ll be determined to stake a claim for a spot in Jesse Marsch’s plans, but as he enters an uncertain few months, his future will be on his mind.
