Daniel Farke must be pleased with the performance of Leeds at Elland Road this season.
Leeds secured a crucial victory against West Ham as they strive for survival in the Premier League. During the summer transfer window, there was significant movement at Leeds, and Largie Ramazani was one of the players who had to depart Farke’s team to make room for new additions.
Ramazani moved to Valencia on loan from Leeds in the summer but, similar to his time at Elland Road, he has struggled to get regular playing time in Spain, hindered further by a recent muscle injury.
However, Ramazani continues to support his former Leeds teammates, particularly singling out one star player. Despite facing challenges in establishing himself as a regular starter under Farke, there is optimism that Ramazani could still have a future at Leeds, given that his move to Valencia was only on a temporary basis without a purchase option.
Ramazani, who made 29 Championship appearances for Leeds last season, expressed his happiness for Joe Rodon, who scored in the West Ham match. Rodon has been solid defensively for Leeds and is now contributing with goals, adding to the team’s threat from set-pieces. Ramazani’s support for Rodon was evident in a message left on the Welshman’s Instagram post.
Alongside Ramazani, other players, including Gabriel Gudmundsson and Dominic Calvert-Lewin, praised Rodon for his performances. Rodon has become a key player for Farke and his solid contributions are recognized and valued by his teammates like former Leeds player Junior Firpo, who described Rodon as a “goalscorer” and a crucial asset for Leeds in their battle for Premier League survival.
