Daniel Farke will see room for improvement after Leeds\u2019 start to the Premier League.<\/strong><\/p>\n Leeds are fighting for Premier League survival<\/a> this campaign, as Farke<\/a> hopes to keep his side in England\u2019s top flight.<\/p>\n Things are looking more concerning for the January transfer window, as Leeds are battling PSR issues<\/a> that could impact their chances of staying up.<\/p>\n Farke will now be sweating over the multiple Leeds<\/a> players called up for international duty this October.<\/p>\n Farke wasn\u2019t pleased with Leeds\u2019 spending<\/a> in the summer transfer window, and as a result, his squad is lacking quality in depth.<\/p>\n It is for that reason that he has to pray none of his nine players come back with injuries from international friendlies and World Cup qualifiers.<\/p>\n Leeds United\u2019s senior international call-ups<\/strong><\/p>\n Welsh quartet, Karl Darlow, Dan James<\/a>, Ethan Ampadu, and Joe Rodon<\/a>, are all core players at Elland Road. <\/p>\n The Whites will be hopeful that all four come back untouched from a friendly against England and a World Cup qualification match against Belgium.<\/p>\n James will miss those games with an ankle issue, though.<\/p>\n Ao Tanaka just returned from injury<\/a> and featured in Leeds\u2019 2-1 defeat to Tottenham, and will be hoping to stay injury-free in his friendlies. <\/p>\n Gabriel Gudmundsson has started all seven of Leeds\u2019 Premier League games, as he is called up for Sweden\u2019s World Cup qualification games against the same opponents Jaka Bijol faces for Slovenia.<\/p>\n Finally, Ilia Gruev plays for Bulgaria in World Cup qualification games, while Brenden Aaronson may feature in his nation\u2019s friendly matches.<\/p>\n Where to watch Leeds players in action for their country<\/p>\n Leeds fans can watch their Darlow, Ampadu, and Rodon take on England on 9 October, with the UK showdown being televised live on Channel 4. The game is also available for streaming through ITVX and BBC iPlayer.<\/p>\n There is no confirmation over broadcasting for Japan and Tanaka<\/a>\u2018s games, as the same goes for Bijol and Gudmundsson\u2019s crunch matches for Slovenia and Sweden.<\/p>\n Gruev\u2019s match against Spain will be available to stream through Amazon Prime Video at 7:45 pm on 14 October, but no viewing is available for his country\u2019s clash with Turkey.<\/p>\n The United States and Aaronson\u2019s double header are also unavailable to watch in the UK.<\/p>\n Enjoyed this article?<\/strong> Stay connected with all the latest Leeds United news, updates, and behind-the-scenes content by following us on our new Instagram account \u2013@motleedsnews<\/a><\/p>\n ![\"Daniel](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/imago1067003090-1024x683.jpg\")
