Phil Hay has expressed concerns about Sam Byram’s availability for Leeds United’s upcoming match against QPR at Loftus Road on Friday. Despite facing injury setbacks this season, the full-back has made 22 Championship starts and played a crucial role in the recent game against Middlesbrough.
During that match, Archie Gray took over in midfield, highlighting Byram’s flexibility as a valuable asset for Leeds. Hay questioned whether Byram would be fit enough to play again so soon after the Boro game, which took place just four days prior to the QPR fixture.
However, Farke’s comments have given hope that Byram will be ready for the game against QPR. His presence has been essential in Gray’s midfield transition, especially with Connor Roberts dealing with injuries. The Elland Road supporters will be eagerly awaiting confirmation of Byram’s availability, as each game becomes increasingly crucial in the team’s pursuit of automatic promotion.
Farke’s reassurance may ease some concerns, but as the end of the season nears, anything can happen in the race for promotion.
