The dust has now settled on the 2022/23 Premier League season as Leeds United supporters come to terms with the fact that their team have dropped out of English football’s top flight once again.
A 4-1 home defeat to Tottenham Hotspur was the final nail in the coffin as the Whites now get set to take on the EFL Championship and try to bounce straight back up. The squad that does that is likely to look very different to the current one with many top players currently being linked with moves away from Elland Road.
