Leeds United head coach Marcelo Bielsa has hinted at a potential debut for Kamil Miazek against Bristol City on Saturday after Bailey Peacock-Farrell picked up an injury in training.
The Whites could well be forced to hand a debut to Miazek on Saturday due to the potential unavailability of Peacock-Farrell, while Jamal Blackman has a broken leg.
Peacock-Farrell, who has played every single minute of the Whites’ Championship campaign, picked up an injury during training on Wednesday after Blackman had suffered a broken tibia while playing for Leeds Under-23s last week.
The situation offers a tricky challenge for Bielsa as he is now left with only the third-choice shot-stopper Miazek, who has yet to make a senior appearance for the club.
Bielsa hinted that he could call up Miazek to make his debut against Bristol City on Saturday after confirming that Peacock-Farrell is almost certainly out of contention due to a knee injury.
“It will be difficult for Peacock-Farrell to play because yesterday at the end of the training session he had a problem with his knee and probably won’t be able to play”, Bielsa said in a press conference.
“Probably Kamil will play.
"I can’t tell you about the possibility of bringing someone in”, he added.
Miazek joined Leeds United as a free agent in the summer of 2017 after he was released by Polish second tier side Chojniczanka Chojnice.
