The sight of Patrick Bamford joining in with Leeds United training session was one for sore eyes, but this was not his first time out on the grass.

Bamford was fully involved as the Whites squad popped passes around and hassled each other for the ball in rondo keep-ball exercises on Thursday morning, ahead of some set-piece work under the watchful eye of their new head coach Jesse Marsch.

The proximity of a return to action for the striker, said to be 'close' by Marsch, has left supporters puzzled because it comes so soon after Marcelo Bielsa rated Bamford's chances of playing again this season as merely 'probable.'
