Leeds United's new best XI and bench with fourth summer signing, pair back and formation choice

Leeds United have new faces, a new shape – and now very likely a very different new best XI and bench.

Leeds unveiled their fourth signing of the summer on Saturday evening as right back Jayden Bogle joined the Whites from Championship rivals Sheffield United for around £5m. The 23-year-old follows Joe Rothwell and Alex Cairns in being new to the club this summer which has also seen Leeds sign last season’s loan star Joe Rodon on a permanent deal from Tottenham Hotspur for £10m.

Ahead of the new season, there are also two ‘new’ faces from within in the shape of Brenden Aaronson and Max Wober who have returned from last season’s loan exits to be part of the Whites squad. Following a summer of international duty, the pair were not involved in Friday night’s first public friendly at Harrogate Town which saw another notable Whites change as boss Daniel Farke lined up with a three-man centre-back axis.

There were also new youngsters on the scene, teens Harry Gray, James Debayo, Sam Chambers and Luca Thomas all handed their Whites public debuts along with Rothwell in the middle of the park. With Archie Gray and Glen Kamara the headline acts amongst a raft of exits, it’s already been a summer of huge change. That will now transcend itself to how the team’s best XI and bench will look, an idea of which we run through here as Farke faces some very tough decisions with the raft of talent in his current squad.
