Stuart Dallas will be counting down the days until he is given the green light to head out on to the field with his teammates once more. The Northern Irishman hasn’t been seen in a Leeds United shirt since fracturing his femur in a challenge with Jack Grealish back in April.
He underwent surgery in the days that followed and he has been working his way through a long and arduous recovery process with the Thorp Arch physios ever since. Dallas was pictured running on Leeds’ training ground back in August, a huge sign of progress just a few months after going under the knife and over the last couple of months he has been working to rebuild his fitness and build up his leg strength once more.
As such, Dallas has regularly been spotted in the Whites’ gym, going through resistance exercises with a conditioner watching on closely. However, just seven months on from the injury, it seems the 31-year-old is on the comeback trail and Marsch is hopeful of seeing him back on the pitch before the end of the year.
