Leeds United captain Ethan Ampadu will be out until at least January having sustained a knee ligament injury in their Championship win against Coventry City.

The 24-year-old Wales international came off in the 41st minute of Saturday's 3-0 victory over the Sky Blues.

Ampadu was set to be part of Wales' Nations League ranks for their fixtures against Iceland and Montenegro - manager Craig Bellamy will announced the squad on Wednesday.

"It's a serious knee injury, he has damaged his lateral ligament - the doctors have recommended a conservative treatment so he doesn't need surgery," Leeds boss Daniel Farke told ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Leeds.

"It's difficult to predict how long he will be out but it's realistic to speak about 10 weeks until he can return to team training.

"It could be a few days more or less depending on the rehab. At the moment we expect him to be back in training at some point in December but he will need a bit of team training before he's available.

"We expect him to be back [playing] at some point in January."
