Option against Villa Bamford (hip) has been training and will be in the squad for Friday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Jesse Marsch.

Impact Bamford had been nearing a return since getting back in training about a week ago, though it's likely he'll only be on the bench for Friday's match. In addition to constant injury issues, he battled poor form early in the campaign and his hope the rest of the way will be to stay healthy. If that happens, the goals figure to come as well.

Doubtful for Wednesday Bamford (hip) "won't be back in" Leeds' squad that takes on West Ham United on Wednesday, manager Jesse Marsch told Graham Smyth of the Yorkshire Evening Post Tuesday.

Impact Bamford underwent a minor groin surgery in December and is taking slightly longer to recover than he was initially expected. A litany of injuries have limited Bamford to just 19 Premier League appearances (11 starts) over the last 18 months, but Marsch also said that he still has "big hope that [undergoing the surgery was] a difference maker in terms of getting him to 100 per cent."

Impact Bamford remains out as he looks to return to training following Saturday's match. The forward underwent hip surgery during the World Cup break and likely won't be thrown back into a major role immediately, with a role off the bench more likely in his first match back.

Left out Wednesday Bamford (hip) didn't make the match-day squad against Manchester City on Wednesday.

Impact Bamford will be sidelined for his third straight match with his most recent appearance coming Oct. 29 versus Liverpool, a two-month stretch on the shelf. With the busy schedule ahead, Bamford could be in danger of missing a handful more matches.

Impact Bamford was on track to return from his groin surgery before an illness slowed his return to training. That delay will likely make it tough for Bamford to return for a Wednesday clash with Manchester City. If Bamford is unable to go Rodrigo (strain) would become the top option in attack against the reigning champions.

Undergoes groin operation Bamford is undergoing a "minor surgery" for a groin issue and will miss Leeds' upcoming training camp in Spain. He is expected to be able to return to the squad in about two weeks.

Impact Bamford missed the last few games before the World Cup break due to a hip injury, which is presumably what's being operated on during this surgery.

Impact Bamford will remain out Saturday after suffering what's believed to be a fluke injury last week. At a minimum, he'll have a long break to hopefully get back his fitness after another slow start to the season. It's expected Rodrigo and Crysencio Summerville will start again for Leeds.

Now has hip injury Bamford injured his hip while taking a penalty and will be out for seven days, according to manager Jesse Marsch via Phil Hay of The Athletic.

Impact Bamford also missed Saturday's 4-3 comeback win over Bournemouth but now appears likely to miss the last match before the World Cup against Tottenham on Saturday. He's only started twice in his last eight matches and until Bamford can stay fit and find confidence, Rodrigo should start at striker.

Impact Bamford picked up the injury in training but is hoping to return before the World Cup break. The forward has seen consistent playing time, though more often than not he has been on the bench. Crysencio Summerville's good form has kept Bamford out of the starting XI, and even if Bamford returns he would likely only see limited playing time Sunday.

Not in squad to face Bournemouth Bamford is not in the match day squad to face Bournemouth due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Bamford misses out on the match after picking up an injury in training on Friday. The forward will hope to return in time to face Tottenham next weekend.

Assists off bench Bamford assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Liverpool.

Impact Bamford came off the bench for the final 40 minutes Saturday and set up the game-winning goal with his sole chance created. While Bamford doesn't have the starting role he did in previous seasons he's still shown flashes of productivity off the bench. Bamford isn't much of a fantasy target in this role, though he does offer upside when he finds himself in the starting XI.
