It hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows for Firpo behind the scenes during this ban
Staying fit, competitive and ready through suspension has not been easy for Junior Firpo , who is not guaranteed of an immediate Leeds United recall this weekend. The left-back has missed the last three matches after being punished for pushing his head into Danny McNamara’s.
“You know I'm a big fan of Junior Firpo,” he said. “Through my whole time, I've supported him and put him, when he was fit, pretty soon into the starting line-up. While Farke reminded fans of his long-standing support for Firpo, he reiterated no player can be guaranteed of starts in his side. A late decision will be made on Byram, who came off on Wednesday with a hamstring complaint, and that could decide Firpo’s fate.
