Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn has revealed that Tommaso Bianchi will be fit to face Blackburn Rovers when Championship football returns this weekend.

The Italian midfielder limped out of Leeds's last game - a 3-1 win over Blackpool - but Redfearn is sure he will be able to play this weekend.

"He's been back training again, it was just a whack on his shin," Redfearn told the club website.

"He's back in full training again so it's not a problem."

Bianchi, 26, has started all but one of Leeds's Championship games this season since a summer switch from Sassuolo.
