Match19 Aug 2028
Leeds United taken apart
0‑3 to Newcastle United, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Zinho Vanheusden hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Leeds United can pretend not to have heard.

Leeds United say no — this time
The offer from Wrexham for Zinho Vanheusden was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.
Squad21 Aug 2028
Tarik Muharemović in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Leeds United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Squad21 Aug 2028
Largie Ramazani has improved at 27, which nobody expected
Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.
Squad21 Aug 2028
Real improvement from Robert Martin at Leeds United
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Robert Martin is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.
Squad21 Aug 2028
Words at Leeds United training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Harry Wilson is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.
Boardroom21 Aug 2028
Graduation day at Leeds United
5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

One of our own: Steven Miller joins the Leeds United first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Steven Miller is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
In brief
- Market Joseph Evans steps up from the Leeds United academy
- Boardroom Nobody left the Leeds United dressing room in a hurry
- Player ratings Nobody could get near Daniel James
