“I had a little bit of time off, I had Sunday off, that was it,” the striker said.

“Yesterday I was with the physio to make sure I could train today thinking it would just be drills.

“Bam, straight in with murderball today! I’m not going to lie, I was struggling a bit after, I was tired.”

Leeds fans will hope Bamford can return as soon as possible after his superb form in the Premier League this season.

The former Chelsea man has scored 14 goals and is finally showing his true potential at this level after a slow start to his career.
