Leeds United’s key summer dates, from transfer window to fixture release | OneFootball

Leeds United’s summer diary is set, with key dates for the World Cup, transfers, fixtures and USA friendlies. It follows a 3-0 loss at West Ham that capped a 47-point, 14th-place return.

The Whites looked in trouble in November before Daniel Farke’s tweak sparked an eight-game unbeaten run. Safety was long secured and injuries had piled up, according to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk.

June 11 brings the World Cup kick-off, with Switzerland’s Noah Okafor and American Brenden Aaronson among those representing their countries across the USA, Canada and Mexico.

The transfer window opens on June 15, although early business could be slowed by the tournament. Lukas Nmecha’s arrival was confirmed on this day last year.

Premier League fixtures are released at 10am on Friday, June 19. Focus will be on the opener, Boxing Day and the final weekend.

The World Cup final is on July 19 at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and a Leeds player could be involved.

Pre-season starts on July 25 against Championship side Wrexham at the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, the first leg of a USA tour.

Leeds then face Sunderland on July 30 at the Sports Illustrated Stadium in New Jersey, meeting a fellow Premier League side as both build towards their second top-flight campaigns.
