After playing so well to score, the forward may not rehabilitate in time and thus Daniel Farke won’t have one of his important attacking players. On the upside, there is good news regarding the fitness of Brenden Aaronson, who is most likely to play. Leeds’ creativity in attack might be negatively affected without the services of Solomon, primarily in a match where they desperately need the three points for promotion.
