Leeds United make supporter request for Bournemouth game ahead of 'special announcements' — YEP 26/9/25

Leeds United have asked for fans to be in their seats by 2.45pm on Saturday before the Bournemouth game for the first of two planned special announcements.

The Whites take on the Cherries in a 3pm kick-off at Elland Road on Saturday in what will be their sixth Premier League outing of the season. A win over Andoni Iraola’s fourth-placed side would let Leeds join them on 10 points. Leeds go into the game full of confidence thanks to a 3-1 win away from home at Wolverhampton Wanderers last week, when they scored their first goals from open play this season either side of a sublime Anton Stach free-kick.

Prior to the game Leeds will be making the first of two ‘special’ announcements. In a statement the club have requested that fans take their seats in time to hear the first, 15 minutes before kick-off. The second will follow at half-time. The statement read: “Leeds United will be making two special announcements during Saturday’s Premier League fixture with AFC Bournemouth at Elland Road. Supporters are advised to be seated by 2:45pm for the first announcement, with a second announcement to follow at half-time. Both announcements will not want to be missed by loyal supporters who have followed the club throughout the years. Marching on Together. “

Leeds welcomed good news at Thorp Arch this week with the return to team training of Jayden Bogle and Daniel James. Bogle limped off in the late stages of the win over Wolves after taking studs to the top of his foot in an accidental collision. The right-back only suffered bruising however and is in contention to face Bournemouth. James sustained a core muscle injury when he was sent on as a substitute at Fulham and missed the Wolves game. Willy Gnonto and Lucas Perri however continue to rehab their calf and quad injuries respectively and neither are available for Saturday.

by Kwadwo Hemeng Leeds United have had some impressive results in pre-season so far. In three games, they have failed to lose and have racked up impressive scorelines. Thursday was no different. While the first team is preparing for the next friendly against Villarreal, the U21s side, with a host of first team stars, thrashed Norweigian side Lyn 1896 10-2 in a pre-season friendly this afternoon. There were some surprising names on the scoresheet – Patrick Bamford scored, Sam Greenwood netted a brace and Joe Gelhardt scored four goals in the game. This is the second friendly the trio have featured in; they played in the friendly against Hartlepool last weekend. The trio did not make the trip to Germany, as Daniel Farke has instructed them to find new clubs. Patrick Bamford was informed after a long personal conversation with the Leeds boss. Farke then revealed this crucial information right after the club’s first game against Manchester United. According to the German coach, h...

by Kwadwo Hemeng Leeds United are playing in the Premier League next season. But with the transfer window coming up, there are still some questions about the squad that need to be answered. Starting striker Joel Piroe has been first choice over the last two seasons. And he has delivered, scoring over 35 goals. But in recent weeks, Leeds’ rumoured moves show that there may be doubt over his ability heading into the Premier League. Over the last month, the club have been linked with George Hirst, and more recently Celtic star Daizen Maeda. Wrexham are also said to be very interested in signing Patrick Bamford this summer, so Leeds will definitely sign a new striker. TEAMtalk are reporting that Leeds United have drawn up a shortlist of strikers for the summer. It includes two current Premier League players, and a former Tottenham star. But surprisingly, the trio have just 19 career goals in the competition. Whichever of them the club decides to sign will have a big say in survivin...

By Mark Carruthers The latest transfer talk from Elland Road as Leeds United prepare to return to the Premier League with a home game against Everton on Monday night. Leeds United are reportedly ‘advancing’ with a deal to secure another defensive addition to their squad ahead of the new Premier League season. The Whites have already enjoyed a productive summer transfer window by completing the signings of Lyon goalkeeper Lucas Perri, midfield duo Sean Longstaff and Anton Stach and free agent forward Lukas Nmecha.
