Daniel Farke has provided an update on Jayden Bogle after the right-back was forced off the pitch in Leeds United’s victory over Wolves.
In a big pressure game, Leeds United picked up their second win of the Premier League campaign on Saturday in a confident 3-1 victory over Wolves.
Daniel Farke needed a big result after Leeds had gone winless since the opening day, while also failing to score in the league since Lukas Nmecha’s penalty against Everton.
Things didn’t get off to a great start when Wolves scored after just eight minutes, but Dominic Calvert-Lewin equalised with a powerful header.
A stunning free-kick from Anton Stach and Noah Okafor’s tidy finish completed the turnaround before the break, with Leeds withstanding second-half pressure for a crucial three points.
The only dampener on a soggy day in the Black Country was a late injury suffered by Jayden Bogle, and Farke says the injury cannot yet be fully assessed.

Daniel Farke on Jayden Bogle injury
It had been yet another solid display for Bogle, who set up Calvert-Lewin’s header with a cross from deep.
However, things took a turn for the worse in the 82nd minute when, after competing for a header, a Wolves player landed awkwardly on his foot.
Bogle’s boot came off in the clash and it was immediately clear he was in serious discomfort. After treatment, the right-back was forced to limp his way back to the changing room.
Farke said in a post-match press conference that the injury cannot yet be assessed due to the swelling.
He said: “We have to assess him. It’s pretty swollen. We will have to assess him.”
Injuries mounting for Leeds United
The last thing Leeds need is yet another injury, with the casualties already piling up just five games into the new season.
Though Joel Piroe was back in the squad and Ao Tanaka returned to action on Saturday, Leeds were without goalkeeper Lucas Perri and attacking duo Dan James and Willy Gnonto.
It’s unclear when any of the trio will return and with Bogle now added to the injury list, things aren’t looking great.
Despite 10 summer signings, Leeds don’t have the deepest squad and are already beginning to look thin on options.
New arrival James Justin will likely fill in for Bogle, but the right-back is one of Farke’s most important players and will be a major blow.
