The Whites' training ground plans are unlikely to be affected by loan exits and takeover uncertainty as was the case last summer, with Farke and his staff ready to take training on day one of pre-season this time around.
Leeds will contest friendlies against LaLiga side Valencia, League Two Harrogate Town and as yet unnamed opponents, believed to be in Germany, during the club's unconfirmed pre-season tour before the Championship opener on the weekend of August 10.
Several members of Farke's squad are currently away on international duty, representing their nations at tournaments such as Copa America and the European Championships, while some have only just gone on their summer breaks due to end-of-season commitments with their countries. Here is a breakdown of when each Leeds player can be expected to return to Thorp Arch ahead of the new campaign.

13. Ethan Ampadu - July 1/8
Ampadu was involved with the Wales squad at the beginning of June after a gruelling season in which he played every league game so may be given additional time off before throwing himself into pre-season. | Getty Images

15. Glen Kamara - July 1/8
Like his midfield partner Gruev, Kamara sat out Finland's international games in June, instead jetting off to Japan on a city break to Tokyo. The Finn did withdraw from the squad with a leg injury, though, which may mean he, too, is given a little extra time to rest up. | Getty Images

Gray has been in Dubai with private fitness coaches and at Thorp Arch going through his individual regimen over the summer, and with no England youth international requirements, will be raring to go on day one of pre-season. | Getty Images

17. Charlie Crew - July 1
Wales youngster Crew made his international debut earlier this month but will be expected to rejoin Farke's main group come the opening day of pre-season. | Getty Images

18. Darko Gyabi - July 1
