4 Leeds players set to leave as things stand - 6 big calls for 2027

Leeds United face looming contract decisions as Daniel Farke balances squad planning with a survival push.

According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, the Whites visit Newcastle United on Wednesday night seeking a result that would extend a seven-game unbeaten run and could widen their eight point cushion above the relegation zone.

The January transfer window offers a slight distraction, with the hierarchy aiming to bolster Farke’s options over the coming weeks to keep momentum.

Four players are into the final six months of their current deals, with Karl Darlow, Alex Cairns, Sam Byram and Illan Meslier all contracted until summer 2026.

Lukas Nmecha and Joel Piroe are tied to summer 2027, meaning longer-term calls also await at Elland Road.
