Here’s an excerpt from the paraphrased text:

Leeds United is preparing for their upcoming match against Sunderland on Friday night but faces significant injury setbacks. Manager Daniel Farke has confirmed that Ethan Ampadu will miss the trip and may be sidelined for over two months due to a serious lateral knee ligament injury sustained during Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Coventry City. Ampadu has been a key player for Leeds since joining from Chelsea last summer, starting all eight competitive matches this season.

Farke stated that while surgery isn’t necessary and conservative treatment has been recommended, it may take around ten weeks before Ampadu can return to team training, with a possible comeback in December. In his absence, Pascal Struijk will take on the captaincy, and Farke has praised him for his leadership and performance, noting the importance of maintaining that level as the team navigates through these challenges.

The former Sunderland defender, Danny Batth, is now a free agent after being released at the end of the season. This summer, Batth returned to his former club, Wolves.
