The Colombian winger went down off the ball and receieved treatment on the pitch before he was replaced by Rodrigo.

Sinisterra had combined well with Patrick Bamford early in the game, as he brought down a pass from the striker before returning the ball to him before Bamford's shot was hit narrowly wide.

It remains to be seen if the injury is serious or if he was withdrawn as a pre-caution. Leeds are next in action against Cagliari at Elland Road on July 31.

Their Premier League campaign starts against Wolves on August 6.
