Leeds United dealt international break boost Javi Gracia needed ahead of the run-in

International breaks can be nervy and anxious periods for Premier League managers. Coaches across the top flight will have been watching performances through their fingers at times, hoping and praying that their players can return unscathed.

Javi Gracia will have been no different as members of his Leeds United squad travelled far and wide to represent their countries. Unfortunately for Gracia, both Wilfried Gnonto and Max Wober seem to have picked up small issues over the last few days.

Wober suffered a thigh injury while representing Austria, while Gnonto could be seen limping out of Italy’s win over Malta with what has been described as a sprained ankle. The pair will be assessed on their return to Thorp Arch before a decision is made on whether they will be fit to take on Arsenal on Saturday afternoon at the Emirates Stadium.
