Leeds United will be looking to return to the top of the Championship this evening when they travel to Reading at the Madejski Stadium.

It hasn’t proved to be a happy hunting ground for the Whites in previous years but Leeds are a different animal under boss Marcelo Bielsa.

Bielsa is still minus his influential performer who has missed the last four games with a knee problem.

Positive news regarding Roofe’s return doesn’t look too far away, however.

The 26-year-old has taken to Twitter to update the loyal Leeds United supporters on his recovery progress.

His message sounds extremely positive and reads:

Roofe hasn’t played since the 2-1 win over Swansea City in February.

Leeds have won three of the four games he has missed but his energy in attack is still a useful asset to the way Bielsa sets his teams up to play.

The Whites are just ten games away from reaching the Premier League and they would love him back in contention for the last push.

The club’s supporters are intrigued by Roofe’s update and have taken to Twitter with excitement.

We round up the best tweets from supporters of the Whites in response to Roofe’s latest message.
