Leeds United hand 17-year-old Callum Mills first professional deal

Callum Mills, 17, has signed his first professional contract with Leeds United after breaking into Scott Gardner’s under-21s last season.

The club said in a statement that the academy midfielder has agreed a two-year deal, keeping him at Thorp Arch until 2028.

Mills, who can operate across midfield or on the flank, enjoyed a productive 2025/26, making 37 appearances in all competitions and scoring five times.

That included 14 outings for the U21s, with valuable minutes against senior opposition in the National League Cup and Vertu Trophy, and European action versus RSC Anderlecht Futures.

The teenager now steps into the professional ranks with the Whites.
