Honors and legacy

Leeds are one of England's true giants:
  • 3 League Titles
  • 1 FA Cup
  • 1 League Cup
  • Multiple major European runs

They have a fierce, passionate fanbase and a long history of producing tough, aggressive teams.

Recent history

After returning to the Premier League under Marcelo Bielsa, Leeds lit up the league with chaos-ball: high intensity, high pressing, wild scorelines. They've been relegated and promoted multiple times since, including a Championship title win in 2024-25 (100 points) under Daniel Farke. In their first season back in 2025-26, Farke steered Leeds to survival, a first win at Old Trafford in the league in 45 years, and a run to the FA Cup semi-finals: their best cup run since 1987. Leeds have now been promoted to the top flight and avoided immediate relegation more times than any other club in English football history.
