Severity of Gnonto injury 'not yet clear'

I have previously written in this column of Leeds United's need to set Willy Gnonto free in the number 10 role but that could be something which is now not possible.

He was forced off with an ankle injury during an Italy Under-21 international against the Netherlands on Friday although the severity of the problem is not yet clear.

Leeds return to Championship action on Saturday against Swansea City and will be thankful it is a 15:00 GMT kick-off as lunchtime games have seen them, on average, pick up fewer points than those starting later in the day.
