Leeds United defender Max Wober will return to Elland Road tomorrow after suffering a muscle injury in his thigh while on international duty for Austria.
The 25-year-old limped off at the Raiffeisen Arena after just 34 minutes and was replaced by Stefan Posch while goals from Michael Gregoritsch, Christoph Baumgartner and a Marcel Sabitzer brace secured a 4-1 win over Azerbaijan for Das Team .
A long-term injury to Wober would be a huge blow for the Whites after his standout performances since his arrival early on in the January transfer window.
