It was all change for Leeds United this summer from top to bottom with new owners, a new manager, first team staff and a raft of senior signings in the summer window.
49ers Enterprises bought the club outright from previous owner Andrea Radrizzani and installed Daniel Farke as their first managerial appointment, before giving the German the power to decide who it was that he wanted from the market to sculpt a new-look side.
He kept Illan Meslier in place and has preferred him over Darlow in goal. Pascal Struijk, Crysencio Summerville, Willy Gnonto, Patrick Bamford and Luke Ayling are also among the familiar faces in the squad. And the manager was also happy to keep Liam Cooper as the club’s captain. The defender, currently away on international duty with Scotland, is Leeds’ longest serving player having signed from Chesterfield more than nine years ago.
