Stuart Dallas backs Brenden Aaronson as Leeds United Player of the Season contender | OneFootball

Stuart Dallas has described Brenden Aaronson as in the running for Leeds United’s Player of the Season, according to Leedsunited.news.

Speaking on the club’s official podcast, with Aaronson alongside him, Dallas offered a verdict that marks a sharp turn from earlier in the campaign.

Back then, the American was dismissed as below Championship standard despite a £25m move, and Jon Newsome even argued Leeds should have sold him and Joel Piroe.

Since then, Aaronson has stitched together consistent displays and is affecting matches rather than offering isolated moments.

His output now reflects that influence, with four goals and three assists this season.

Daniel Farke has kept faith during the scrutiny, using him regularly as he has shifted from a question mark to a trusted presence.

Six months ago few supporters would have picked him to start, yet recent weeks have underlined why that faith is being rewarded.

Dallas’s assessment mirrors that reality, acknowledging that Aaronson’s contribution now matches the expectations and responsibility he carries in attacking areas.
