Leeds United loanee 'not in plans' of current club as promotion-winning ex-Whites boss outlines play-off hope

www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk— Leeds United’s season has been extended for at least another two games after they missed out on automatic promotion to Ipswich Town. A 2-1 defeat at home to Southampton on the final day condemned Daniel Farke’s men to third place and they will now face the German’s former team, Norwich City, in the play-off semi-finals, with victory over two legs setting up a meeting with either the Saints or West Brom at Wembley.

Leeds United are now less than 48 hours away from Thursday’s massive Championship play-off semi-final second-leg at home to Norwich City. Daniel Farke’s side fought hard to leave Carrow Road with a 0-0 draw on Sunday but must now build on that steady performance in front of a packed out and expectant Elland Road.
