Key Leeds United trio are 'major doubts' ahead of Premier League trip to Sunderland - but some good news elsewhere

Calvert-Lewin suffered a bruised foot in last weekend’s draw with Manchester United at Elland Road.

The England international scored his fourth Premier League goal of the season in the Roses clash, but was on the end of a painful Diogo Dalot challenge late in the game.

Stach also has a foot issue, while Okafor has an abductor concern.

Better news sees Daniel James back in the fray after missing the last two games with a back issue.

Joe Rodon is continuing his rehabilitation after being sidelined with a hamstring problem sustained in the home encounter with Brentford on August 30.

Providing a team news update ahead of the Wearside fixture, Farke said: “We have to wait and assess a little bit who is actually available for this game.

"Obviously, Joe Rodon is still out doing his re-hab work.

Our offensive players from the last game are all doubtful. Dominic Calvert-Lewin got a tackle and a foul late on in the last game and he's struggling since this moment with a bruise on his foot.

"So there’s problems with this and there’s still a question mark behind his availability.

"Anton Stach is the same – a foot problem after the last game. It's painful at the moment. Also there’s a question mark behind his availability. And Noah Okafor is struggling with some adductor problems after the last game.

"If the game would be today, all three wouldn't be available. They've missed many training sessions during this week.

"Good, positive news is more or less that we still have two days and we try, of course, to make them available. The question mark will be first who of them will be available, then also for how many minutes.

"And we'll have to assess them and we'll need to take some late decisions. But all three of them are, in addition to Joe Rodon, major doubts.

"All the others seem to be OK. Daniel had his first full training week. He's definitely also in the contention then also for this game, yes."
