Junior Firpo - Page 3 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Could play Sunday Firpo (strain) should be an option for Sunday's match against Leicester City, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact Firpo didn't make the squad last week after playing with the U23s last Friday. He's had another week of full training, so it's thought he'll be an option in the senior team Sunday. When healthy, he's started five-straight matches, so if available, he could be in the XI against Leicester.

In contention Sunday Firpo (strain) will be available for Sunday's clash with Norwich City.

Impact Firpo returns to the squad following a two-match stint on the sidelines due to his muscular injury. The left-back had started all four previous appearances for the club and should be in the mix for a spot in the starting XI against Norwich.

Out against Wolves Firpo will remain out for Saturday's match against Wolves because of a muscular problem, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact This injury kind of came out of nowhere and it's another issue for Leeds to deal with. Hopefully, Firpo will only miss one more match, but nothing is guaranteed with muscle injuries. It's possible Stuart Dallas will be used at left-back against Wolves unless Bielsa opts to go to his 3-3-3-1 again.

Misses squad Saturday Firpo is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Southampton.

Impact An update will likely be revealed on Firpo's absence, as he probably wouldn't be completely dropped from the squad for no reason. Stuart Dallas is starting at left-back against Southampton and could continue there if Firpo is forced to miss an extended period.

Scores own goal in loss Firpo scored an own goal in Saturday's 2-1 loss to West Ham, while creating one chance and making five tackles (two won).

Impact Firpo was having a good outing, leading his side in tackles, but scored against his own net in the 67th minute after an unfortunate play to give West Ham the equalizer. The left-back started three games in a row and will now look to get the nod again versus Watford on Saturday.

Makes lineup against Liverpool Firpo is listed in the starting lineup for Sunday's match against Liverpool.

Impact Firpo had been dealing with a case of COVID-19 that made his place in the team more tenuous to open the season but he's now fit and promptly earned a place at left-back.

Available against Liverpool Firpo (COVID-19) is available for Saturday's match against Liverpool, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact Firpo is back from COVID-19 and will try and find a spot back in the starting XI. He's had a slow start to his Leeds tenure, playing 45 minutes off the bench in the opener and then going only 60 minutes in his lone start against Everton.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Tests positive for COVID-19 Firpo tested positive for COVID-19 recently, he announced Sunday on Twitter.

Impact Firpo will have to isolate for at least 10 days since his positive test before he can return. He missed Sunday's draw against Burnley, but he may be back in time for the Liverpool clash after the international break.

Available against Man United Firpo (undisclosed) is available for Saturday's opener against Manchester United, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.

Impact Firpo is apparently healthy again after missing the last couple friendlies, but given those absences, he's not expected to start. There's a chance his role grows in the side as the season moves along, but he's not expected to be in the XI for Saturday's opener.

AUGUST 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Status unknown ahead of opener Firpo has been excluded from the Leeds squad in each of their last couple friendlies because of an undisclosed injury.

Impact Unsurprisingly, manager Marcelo Bielsa has released no information on a possible injury for Firpo, which makes things difficult for a new player going into a new season. Given his absence, it's unlikely he'll be included in the XI for Saturday's opener against Man United, though Bielsa has done crazier things in his life.

Leeds sign Junior Firpo in £13m deal from Barcelona ' Goal.com Leeds United have completed the £13 million ($18m) signing of Junior Firpo from Barcelona, with the defender signing a four-year contract at Elland Road.

JULY 6, 2021 • GOAL.COM

Transfers to Leeds Firpo signed a four-year contract with Leeds United after transferring from Barcelona, the club announced on Tuesday.

Impact Firpo never nailed down a spot at Barcelona, making only 24 and 10 appearances (14 and four starts) in La Liga and the Champions League, respectively, in his two seasons in red and blue. But the 24-year-old will be eager to prove he is still the player who showed so much promise at Real Betis a few years ago. He will likely battle Ezgjan Alioski for the starting left back spot or possibly Luke Aylingat right back, but don't be surprised if manager Marcelo Bielsa tries to experiment with pushing Firpo farther up into midfield as well.
