Jesse Marsch is dealt a huge blow as Leeds talisman Rodrigo is ruled out for a month after dislocating his shoulder... but Patrick Bamford could be back in time to save the day

Leeds manager Jesse Marsch has confirmed that top scorer Rodrigo faces a month out after dislocating his shoulder.

The Spain forward, who netted four goals in the first three games of the season, went off in the first half of Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Everton. And while Rodrigo does not require surgery, he is likely to miss Leeds' next three matches against Brentford, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United.

Marsch said: 'It's about as good a case scenario as possible. It doesn't need surgery and hopefully in three to four weeks it can calm down.
