Leeds boss Bielsa admits Phillips, Rodrigo to see U23 action tonight

Leeds United pair Rodrigo Moreno and Kalvin Phillips could see U23 action tonight against Wolves.

Midfielder Phillips has missed Leeds' last four matches with a calf issue and forward Rodrigo has been sidelined since the end of January due to a groin injury.

"Some players coming back from injuries will play in the (U23s') game tomorrow (against Wolves)," manager Marcelo Bielsa said ahead of Monday's clash with West Ham.

Winger Ian Poveda (ankle) and midfielder Jamie Shackleton (groin) are also nursing injuries and Bielsa did not clarify which of his injured players were closest to a return to contention.

"It all depends how they evolve in the following days," the Argentinian said.
