# Leeds: Source shares worrying Stuart Dallas update

**A [Leeds United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-news/) source has dropped a further worrying update regarding Stuart Dallas’ serious injury, [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-dallas-injury-update-fear/) report.**

### The Lowdown: Femoral fracture

The Northern Irishman, who has started [121 of Leeds’ last 122 league games](https://theathletic.com/3288953/2022/05/03/you-learn-things-about-yourself-the-road-ahead-for-stuart-dallas-leeds-once-unbreakable-warrior/), became the latest Whites star to suffer a major injury this season.

The 31-year-old was involved in a heavy collision with Manchester City’s Jack Grealish last weekend and had to be stretched off shortly before half-time.

Leeds have since [confirmed](https://www.leedsunited.com/news/team-news/29840/stuart-dallas-injury-update) the worst, with Dallas suffering a femoral fracture and facing a lengthy period on the sidelines. The versatile full-back has already undergone [surgery](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61231463) on the problem, but it looks as if it could be even worse going off a recent update.

### The Latest: Leeds source

[FI](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-dallas-injury-update-fear/) shared a story regarding Dallas on Friday morning after being informed by a Leeds source.

They were told by the Elland Road source that Dallas’ injury is worse than first feared and that he could be out for 12 months, describing it as a ‘devastating’ blow.

### The Verdict: Nightmare

Should [FI](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-dallas-injury-update-fear/)’s reveal prove accurate, then Dallas looks likely to be unavailable for most of Jesse Marsch’s first full season in charge.

That would be horrible news, with Dallas regularly the go-to man to provide cover in a number of different areas. Dallas has also been the club’s third-best Premier League performer this season behind Raphinha and Liam Cooper, as per [WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/19/Show/England-Leeds), turning out at [left-back, right-back and in midfield](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/stuart-dallas/leistungsdaten/spieler/158764).

He has established himself as a Leeds legend with his displays over the last three seasons, and hopefully, he’ll have a setback-free recovery and return sooner than this latest timeframe has suggested.
