Leeds United

The Whites have managed to beat second season syndrome and survive in the Premier League for another year.

Now, they go into their third season knowing that 90% of those teams to survive their first two seasons in a spell in the Premier League have also survived in their next one. They comfortably survived the first season, where 44% of the time a promoted side is relegated straight back to the Championship. They made their second season look much more like hard work but in staying up on the final day, they did what Sheffield United were unable to do last year, as well as 38% of the previous teams to survive their first season in the league. Now they can concentrate on building for their third season back in the top tier.

Sources: With their Premier League survival, Leeds United are finalizing a deal to acquire RB Salzburg's USMNT attacker Brenden Aaronson. Deal around $30 ...

Who would you like to see Leeds bring in this summer? Are you happy to see this deal in the works? After securing Premier League safety with victory over Brentford, Leeds United are due to finalise a deal for Brenden Aaronson’s arrival this summer.

Leeds United defender Robin Koch is clear he is not looking to leave the club this summer.

Koch has enjoyed a total of 38 outings with Leeds, but he is yet to hit the back of the net. “Avoiding relegation was hugely important for all of us, but we know there is a lot more to this team. Koch admits that avoiding relegation has given the Whites a nice feeling, but is clear that next season they want to be well away from the danger zone.

Harrison scored the crucial goal which guaranteed the Whites' Premier League survival on Sunday.

In a somewhat frustrating campaign for the Leeds wide-man, he has still managed to deliver an excellent goalscoring return, all be it with significantly less assists. And Harrison’s goals have become somewhat of a good luck omen since his arrival four years ago. The 25-year-old has scored in 24 matches during his time at the club, with Leeds going onto lose just one of those – which came in the 4-3 defeat to Liverpool in the Whites’ first game back in the Premier League. This season, Harrison has scored in several crucial matches to match his tally of eight from the previous campaign.

In their first transfer window without Marcelo Bielsa since January 2018, changes are afoot at Leeds United.

It felt like Cody Drameh burnt his bridges with Bielsa when asking to leave on loan in January when the coach wanted him to stay - and really could have done with him. That is the way of it when you bring players in from abroad, and he seems highly likely to be heading to Barcelona, but Leeds have certainly had their money's worth. Matheusz Klich has gone from ever-present to bit-part player in the last 18 months and lost his midfield place to 20-year-old forward Greenwood on the decisive final day. Leeds will not want to lose him but there is a danger he could get restless. Players have contracts which will make it harder for some of those who want out to leave against Leeds's will, and much tougher for the club to move on those who would prefer to stay. Transfers, then, are only a small part but they are the most high-profile.

Leeds United tried to sign Brenden Aaronson in the January transfer window, but it will bring the U.S. winger to the Premier League this summer instead.

“And then now Brenden will join that group and look, Jesse will get the most out of Brenden, no question about it. With that secured, Aaronson, for whom securing a U.K. work permit should not be a hurdle given his involvement with the U.S. in World Cup qualifying, is on his way to England. “It's a wild ride, if you really look back how quickly Brenden has risen, on the field most importantly,” Union manager Jim Curtin said after a win over the Portland Timbers Sunday night. The move makes him one of the most expensive American transfers of all time (Christian Pulisic’s $73 million move from Dortmund to Chelsea remains the standard) and continues his ascent from the Union’s academy to the sport’s highest levels. The former Philadelphia Union star is set to head to the Premier League in a reported $29.5 million transfer, leaving Salzburg after having won a second consecutive Austrian league-cup double. Aaronson played in the Champions League with Salzburg, playing well vs.

Red Bull Salzburg and United States midfielder Brenden Aaronson is on the cusp of moving to Premier League side Leeds United, according to a source.

Aaronson has seen his stock rise dramatically from the moment he first signed for the Union out of the club's academy in September of 2018. He joined Salzburg in January of 2021, and helped the club win two domestic league and cup doubles, scoring 13 goals in 66 league and cup appearances. He was named to the MLS Best XI following the 2020 season, a campaign in which he helped lead the Union to the Supporters Shield with four goals and seven assists in 23 league appearances.

Leeds United owner Andrea Radrizzani has pledged to work with Jesse Marsch next season after the American ensured their Premier League survival.

Leeds fired Marcelo Bielsa in February as defeats began to mount and their relentless, all-out attacking approach meant the side were leaking goals. "As a board we will work hard with Jesse Marsch this summer to improve the squad and find a way to deliver the kind of performances you all deserve. "This has been a painful season for everyone, from the board to the fans in the stands, the changing room to the ticket office, it has been a battle," wrote Radrizzani in a message to supporters.

Leeds were able to secure their Premier League status on the final day of the season.

At the bottom the economic disappointment is devastating, watching what’s happening at Burnley now, a buy-out, leveraging £75m to be paid back very quickly and Leeds would’ve been in significant danger or trouble as well from finances side of things. He was also quick to admit his surprise at Leeds coming away from Brentford with all three points after the Bees’ form in the second half of the season. Gary Neville has heaped praise on Leeds United for handling the pressure situation of a final day relegation scrap.

The transfer window reopens in less that three weeks and the fixtures will be released six days later.

Sunday, May 28, 2023, will then witness the final games of the top-flight campaign - a week later than all of 2021/22's loose ends were tied up. The Premier League resuming just over a week later for the traditional Boxing Day fixtures. Leeds United can now look forward to a third consecutive season in the Premier League after securing their survival on the final day.

Ian Wright has claimed that the Leeds United board need to back Jesse Marsch in the transfer window if they are to avoid another relegation battle.

Ian Wright has claimed that the Leeds United board need to back Jesse Marsch in the transfer window if they are to avoid another relegation battle. If nothing else, that will surely have awakened Andrea Radrizzani and Victor Orta that they need to operate with a larger squad. When you look at the way they came up and what [Marcelo] Bielsa did, brilliant.

Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur are both interested in the Leeds United star, whose goal secured their Premier League status.

And it looks like the player will be drawing some serious interest in the summer. With Leeds United’s place in next season’s Premier League season secure, they might not be keen on letting one of their best players leave while Tottenham Hotspur are also rumoured to be in the race. Another club who kept their place in the Premier League this season are Leeds United. Going into the final day, it had looked like there was a good possibility that the Peacocks would get relegated.

However, reports now state that Spurs may have competition in the shape of Newcastle United.

Jesse Marsch replaced Marcelo Bielsa in February and has kept Leeds in the Premier League.

I wouldn’t say he’s aloof but I don’t know whether he was a shy man but the football pitch was his domain. “Sometimes you need a hand round the shoulder and he was never like that. I thought it was time for him to probably go, obviously he was a great coach.

Having passed on belief and clarity of principles to his players, Marsch could only gesticulate and shout from the sidelines as his players fought for their place in the Premier League on the pitch at the Brentford Community Stadium.

Jesse Marsch will no doubt be overjoyed to bring in a fellow American who’s not only been on Orta’s radar previously, but is also a very talented young man who can do a much-needed job for the Whites. Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Brenden Aaronson will “soon” undergo a medical to join Leeds United, according to Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg. It’s been a long time coming and the failure to add that position under Marcelo Bielsa’s rule was one of the reasons why the Yorkshire giants were in so much trouble this season in the Premier League.
