GAME LOG

Scores late for draw Tanaka scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Liverpool.
Impact Tanaka scored from a corner in second half stoppage time during Saturday's draw. The midfielder didn't get much done from open play, but the goal was still enough for a huge result during Saturday's clash. Tanaka's upside will be limited even with Leeds hitting form in the last week after some brutal matches prior to this nice run of form.

Farke keeps a lid on emotions after 'magic' Elland Road night caps off 'exhausting' week Leeds United twice came from behind to draw 3-3 with Liverpool at Elland Road, thanks to Ao Tanaka's strike in second-half stoppage time.
DECEMBER 7 • BEINSPORTS.COM
Strikes once against Chelsea Tanaka scored one goal to go with four shots (one on goal) in Wednesday's 3-1 victory against Chelsea.
Impact Tanaka was a key contributor to his team's victory over Chelsea on Wednesday, scoring his first goal of the season with a powerful strike from outside the box in the first half. He could have extended the lead further, taking four shots and setting a season-high for attempts in the game. Since returning from a knee injury, the midfielder has started two straight matches but has only contributed one goal and taken seven shots in 11 appearances this season, indicating limited consistency in decisive moments.
DECEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE
On bench Saturday Tanaka (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Fulham.
Impact Tanaka has recovered enough from his recent knee injury to be named on the bench Saturday after participating in big parts of training during the week. While not ready to start, this marks an encouraging step toward full match fitness. He had been a regular starter for Leeds under coach Daniel Farke and should compete for that role again once fully sharp.

Could be an option Saturday Tanaka (knee) could be an option for Saturday's clash against Fulham, coach Daniel Farke said in the press conference, according to Beren Cross from The Athletic. "Tanaka has been...
Impact Tanaka missed the last Premier League game due to a knee injury but is nearing a return after being reintegrated into big parts of training this week. This is positive news for Leeds United since he is an undisputed starter in the midfield under coach Daniel Farke and should find back this role when deemed fit enough to.
SEPTEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE
Out until international break Tanaka (knee) is out until the international break due to his MCL injury, according to manager Daniel Farke, per Lee Sobot of the Yorkshire Evening Post. "MCL injury, he will also...
Impact Tanaka is going to be sidelined for a little bit of time as the club helps him recover from an MCL injury, confirmed to at least miss out until the international break. That said, he will hope to recover over the break, with his next chance of playing against Fulham on Sept. 13. He is a starter, so this will force a change for the time being, with Sean Longstaff likely entering the midfield in his place.
AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with MCL Tanaka was forced off in the second half of Saturday's 5-0 defeat against Arsenal due to problems with his MCL, coach Daniel Farke said in a press conference, according to the York...
Impact Tanaka was forced off in the 58th minute of Saturday's defeat against the Gunners after dealing with MCL problems. The midfielder had been suffering from it since the first half and carried on, suggesting it might be only a minor issue. Tanaka will be assessed in the coming days to see if he has to miss time or if he will be good to go for upcoming fixtures. If he has to miss time, his absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Sean Longstaff likely seeing increased playing time.
