Sean Longstaff
28-Year-Old
Leeds United
Premier
OUT
Injury Groin
Est. Return 8/1/2026
Undergoes hernia surgery
Longstaff is out for Sunday's match against West Ham due to hernia surgery, according to manager Daniel Farke. "Also, Sean is out. He had a hernia surgery. Not available for this game. So, of course, a bit tricky still, but we try to find some good solutions."
ANALYSIS
Longstaff is going to hit the sidelines just ahead of the season finale, as the midfielder will instead rest after receiving hernia surgery. This will leave the club without a bit of depth for the final match, as he has appeared off the bench in every game since April 13. The midfielder ends his season in more of a rotational role with the club, notching two goals and two assists in 23 appearances (10 starts) this season.

Held out at Newcastle
Longstaff (calf) was held out of the squad in Wednesday's loss against Newcastle. According to manager Daniel Farke, "It would have been an amazing atmosphere for him to be back at Newcastle but I have to take decisions. He was out of team training for six weeks, just a few sessions with a smaller group. I had him at the Man Utd game for the spirit and wasn't going to bring him on the pitch."
