Patrick Bamford has not been included in the Leeds United squad for the final day showdown against Brentford. Jesse Marsch confirmed he tested positive for Covid-19 as he was on the brink of a potential long-awaited return.
"With Patrick, he was fit and ready to go and then two days ago he tested positive for Covid and he's been really really sick and not been able to get out of bed," the Leeds boss said ahead of the relegation decider. "So it's obviously unfortunate for him and for us. He wasn't even in position to travel, but bringing him wouldn't have been safe with him testing positive."
The other big news from the line-up announcement is the inclusion of Sam Greenwood in place of Mateusz Klich in the only change from the late draw against Brighton. There is also a return to the bench for Tyler Roberts after he has seemingly fully recovered from the hamstring surgery he had following the defeat to Leicester.
