Leeds United’s Rasmus Kristensen has been deemed fit enough to meet up with the Denmark national team later this month. The right-back picked up an injury in training at the start of September and as a result he was forced to watch the Whites’ last outing at Brentford from the sidelines.
The injury was initially thought to be a minor one, but following reports elsewhere about the severity of the issue, there were fears that Kristensen could be set to spend a while longer in the Whites’ treatment room at Thorp Arch. However, the 25-year-old’s call-up by Denmark provides a strong indication about his fitness.
Fortunately for the Dane, Leeds will not play again until October 2, meaning he isn’t expected to miss any more Premier League game time for United. Kristensen will hope to play a key role for his country, too, this month as their Nations League campaign reaches a dramatic conclusion.
