Daniel Farke is anxiously awaiting updates on Ilia Gruev’s condition after he was substituted at halftime during Bulgaria’s friendly against Azerbaijan. Gruev played only 45 minutes in what was deemed a FIFA Series match in Baku on Monday. This followed his full participation in Bulgaria’s victory over Tanzania a few days earlier. It remains unclear whether Gruev’s early substitution was a tactical decision by head coach Ilian Iliev or if it was due to an injury sustained during the game. Leeds fans and manager Farke will be holding their breath for good news regarding Gruev’s fitness as the club prepares for upcoming matches. With the international break ending soon, Farke will be closely monitoring all his players who were away on national team duty. Gruev’s presence has been crucial to Leeds’ recent success, and if he is fit, he is likely to start in their next game against Watford. The timing of Azerbaijan’s friendly works in Farke’s favor, but with other players still involved in international matches, there is still concern for their availability. Farke’s main focus now is on ensuring that all his players return unscathed and ready for the important upcoming fixtures, hoping to see Gruev back in action at Vicarage Road.
