Leeds United return to the Premier League in 2025–26 under Daniel Farke, who secured promotion by winning the Championship with 100 points. The club has strengthened carefully, banking on the talents of Joël Piroe, Championship golden boot winner, winger Wilfried Gnonto, and midfield dynamo Ao Tanaka—Players’ Player of the Year. Chairman Paraag Marathe has pledged full financial backing within Premier League rules, including a significant expansion of Elland Road. Leeds also aim to fill key gaps in goalkeeping and left-back while maintaining their high-energy, pressing style. With their strong fan base, improved squad, and savvy leadership, Leeds are tipped to be the most resilient of the promoted sides.
