Leeds attacker Roberts reveals new setback at QPR

Leeds United loanee Tyler Roberts has revealed that he is set for an extended spell on the sidelines.

The Wales international has not enjoyed the best of luck with injuries this season, while he has been out on loan at QPR.

Roberts took to social media to confirm that an injury he initially suffered in January is set to keep him out for longer than expected.

"So last week I received news that my injury was not as close to healing as first expected," he wrote on his Instagram story.

"This was incredibly frustrating and upsetting as I worked so hard to come back and be the best version of myself to help the team, but now with this setback the time being on the sidelines has increased.

"As a footballer this is the most low and depressing time you can have. I will continue to walk by faith and work just as hard to hopefully be back out there soon.

"It's clear that we have been through a rough time recently but I have confidence knowing that the lads are working hard on the training pitch to change this around and they will.

"Thank you to all the @officialqpr fans for your continued support and patience, it doesn't go unnoticed."
