Leeds United missed out on promotion to the Premier League by a whisker last season, and Daniel Farke has suggested Patrick Bamford’s omission was one of the reasons.
The striker, that is he was apparently frustrated by his lack of minuteshe is considering leaving the club where he has spent the last six years.

The current Championship season is barely underway and Leeds are up there with a challenge, so in many ways you can’t blame Farke for sticking with a winning team.
That’s what Leeds were for much of the 2023/24 season, and it’s probably no exaggeration to say that Bamford’s injury towards the end of this campaign coincided with a run of form that saw Leeds went up on the site to automatic promotion. , and then defeated in the Play-Off final by Southampton.
“Patrick has been struggling in recent months with injuries and that’s what we have to rebuild,” Farke told his pre-match press conference ahead of Leeds’ game against Watford on Tuesday night.
“But nobody has to worry about his mental state, he’s an incredibly smart guy, an experienced guy.
“From the first day I entered, I have not hidden my appreciation for him. He is a top level player.
“I’m 100% sure with a fully fit Patrick Bamford we’d be in the Premier League because we missed him during the shoot. It’s no coincidence including the spot average when he started.”
While the 31-year-old won’t be happy until he’s back on the pitch, the thought of helping to take the club to the promised land – whenever he gets the chance – will surely put his mind off leaving the club . .
