Leeds United have recently seen both senior goalkeepers be struck down with injuries, leaving Marcelo Bielsa with a crisis on his hands.
Both Bailey Peacock-Farrell and Jamal Blackman have picked up knocks, with the latter suffering a broken leg, leaving the club without a recognised number one at the club.
The Argentine could look to use either Will Huffer or Kamil Miazek in the game against Bristol City at the weekend, however, there is suggestions that the Whites could look to use their option of an emergency loan.
According to Phil Hay, the Elland Road outfit are thought to be considering a move for West Bromwich Albion’s Jonathan Bond.
always options out there but time is tight. One of those mentioned in passing to me was Jonathan Bond at West Brom. Won't be David Stockdale though – he's heading on loan to Wycombe.

The Yorkshire Evening Post journalist stated on Twitter that the Baggies’ shot-stopper had been mentioned, whilst he did also state that David Stockdale would not be an option as he is heading out on loan to Wycombe Wanderers.
The Verdict:
Bond certainly will not be a name that will excite Leeds fans in their time of despair, however, as emergency loans are for short-term periods, he would be a solid addition.
The shot-stopper could end up just providing back up to one of the club’s youngsters, whilst Peacock-Farrell’s injury may not rule him out for too long.
However, things are not looking great for Leeds at the moment, as Bielsa’s injury list continues to grow.
Leeds fans – thoughts?
