Leeds United announce season ticket price hike as delayed renewal process begins for some fans — YEP 27/3/25

Leeds United have confirmed a season ticket price hike as the renewal process begins for those eligible.

Supporters who have not yet met the 80 per cent attendance threshold will have to wait until they reach it to renew their tickets but for those who have attended or transferred their ticket for 18 or more league home games this season the renewal process begins on Thursday at 10.30am. The YEP understands the delay in starting the process this year was related to the attendance threshold.

Elland Road chiefs have told fans that their attempt to 'gradually' equalise pricing so that supporters seated in the same Elland Road sections pay the same price is to continue and the cost of season tickets is to go up. According to a club statement the percentage of the price rises will depend on the pricing tier but supporters holding a season ticket for the longest tenure will still pay the lowest prices for 2025/26. The new pricing structure will have just two tiers and will not be dependent on which division Leeds find themselves in next season. Leeds insist that the new prices continue to represent 'excellent value.'

A statement said: "Leeds United are pleased to confirm existing General Admission Season Ticket Holders are able to renew online for the 2025/26 campaign, now. As always, we would like to thank you for your continued support and commitment through the ups and the downs. The renewal window will begin on Thursday 27th March 2025 and will end on Thursday 1st May 2025, online only at tickets.leedsunited.com.

"As communicated to supporters in last season’s renewal announcement, in order to be fairer to all fans and following supporter feedback, the club began the process of equalising pricing gradually over the course of several Season Ticket renewal periods, with the medium-term objective that all supporters seated in the same sections at Elland Road will pay the same price.

"There will be an increase in the cost of Season Tickets (based on 2024/25 prices), the percentage of which depends on the pricing tier, however for 2025/26 supporters who have held a Season Ticket for the longest tenure will still pay the cheapest price for a Season Ticket.

"Our pricing structure previously consisted of three pricing tiers, but there will be just two pricing tiers for the 2025/26 campaign as a result of levelling out.

"Season Ticket Prices will not be dependent upon the club’s divisional status, they will remain the same whichever league we are in for the 2025/26 campaign. Prices will start at £21.52 per game for adults based on 23 home matches, or £26.05 based on 19 home matches and £7.39 for Under-16s based on 23 home matches, or £8.95 based on 19 home matches.

"Leeds United Season Tickets still represent excellent value and are significantly cheaper than buying a ticket on a match-by-match basis. Supporters can spread the payment of a Season Ticket across a six or 10-month instalment plan through our ticketing finance provider, V12 Finance."

Leeds have also confirmed the imminent expiry of the United for 20 Years scheme, which was extended by a year due to the season lost to the Covid-19 pandemic. Those season ticket holders will need to apply online and pay for their 2025/26 ticket but will be classed as renewals so their price tier will depend on their season ticket tenure and 'personal circumstances' during the term of the scheme.

The club's move towards age-related pricing for disabled season ticket holders will continue until adults eventually pay the full adult price.

The huge initial fee Leeds are set to receive for Crysencio Summerville’s move to West Ham — Leeds United News 31/7/24

-
Will Butcher West Ham United are closing in on a deal to sign Crysencio Summerville from Leeds United, and Ben Jacobs has shared how much Leeds will receive for the Dutchman. The 22-year-old has been strongly linked with the Elland Road exit door all summer and was targeted as the one big sale Leeds needed to make before the Profit & Sustainability Rules deadline this month. But instead, Leeds sold Archie Gray for £40m to Tottenham. Leeds have since sold five more players in the form of Diego Llorente, Marc Roca, Kris Klaesson and Charlie Cresswell – raking in around £60m in total. But more exits were always likely and Fabrizio Romano reported on Wednesday afternoon that West Ham had agreed personal terms with Summerville, and talks for a fee were ongoing with the Yorkshire side. Now, the story has moved on with multiple sources claiming a deal is done between Leeds and Angus Kinnear’s old club. The Dutchman is expected to sign a five-year at the London Stadium, until Jun...

Leeds United board break silence after transfer window with statement on upcoming Elland Road development — YEP 2/9/24

By Joe Donnohue Leeds United have confirmed supporters' commemorative stones at Elland Road's Centenary Square will be replaced free of charge in a bid to improve their longevity. Beginning next month, Leeds supporters' personalised stones will be replaced with exact replicas, courtesy of a new company, to ensure of a 'much better quality' installation. The work is expected to take around two months to complete. An official club statement confirmed 'three larger stones dedicated to former managers Don Revie, Howard Wilkinson and Marcelo Bielsa' will also be installed, 'similar to those located in Bremner Square', while additional space for supporters to purchase new stones has also been factored into the project. “The club have taken on board recent feedback from supporters on the stones at Centenary Square, and we are really happy that we can now announce that all of the stones will be replaced," chief executive Angus Kinnear confirmed,...

Leeds United transfer state of play as Whites knock back low bid and assert wing pair stance — YEP 3/7/24

-
By Graham Smyth Leeds United are not actively looking to cash in on Crysencio Summerville and Willy Gnonto and believe any further outgoing transfer business will be done on their terms. The Whites, who sold Archie Gray to Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday for £40m, expect that there will be continued interest in wing pair Summerville and Gnonto as the summer transfer window progresses. Summerville has been a target for Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion but their interest has not yet materialised into a bid. The Albion did, however, send a £30m proposal for Georginio Rutter, which Elland Road chiefs rejected. Rutter is not expected to try and force an exit this summer and appears settled at Leeds after a far more positive second season in English football. The sale of Gray has helped put Leeds into a position where they do not need to sell star players and can dictate any moves that do happen. Club sources say they are not actively looking to sell the likes of Summerville o...
