Leeds United pair named in Premier League Team of the Week with Man Utd and Newcastle players | OneFootball

Two Leeds United players have been named in Sky Sports pundit Clinton Morrison’s Premier League Team of the Week after the 1-0 win over Brighton. According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, goalkeeper Karl Darlow is among those selected.

Leeds closed their 2025/26 home campaign with a dramatic finish, having looked set for a point until second-half stoppage time. Dominic Calvert-Lewin struck in the 95th minute, rounding Bart Verbruggen after seizing on Jan Paul van Hecke’s short backpass.

It capped an eighth clean sheet of the season as Darlow made a string of saves. Those in front of him threw themselves in the way to preserve the result.

The line-up also features Kieran Trippier, who played his final home game for Newcastle in a 3-1 win over West Ham.

Malick Thiaw is picked after a strong display that kept West Ham at arm’s length, while Jaka Bijol is credited for his work protecting the Leeds box.

Luke Shaw makes the cut after scoring an early opener as Manchester United beat Nottingham Forest 3-2. Adam Wharton is included too, having netted his first goal of the season in a 2-2 draw at Brentford.
