Leeds United get major £120m boost ahead of transfer window
Leeds United are preparing for a big transfer window as they’ve secured promotion back to the Premier League.
Despite there being doubts over his future initially, Daniel Farke will remain the manager for next season.
The German has been relegated with Norwich City and will be looking to avoid that in West Yorkshire.

Whites raise £120m in new investment
According to The Athletic on 19 May, the Whites have raised fresh investment of about £120million by issuing new shares to existing investors.
This became possible because they secured promotion back to the Premier League and will get the added revenue boost that comes with it.
Investors have been told that the nine-figure influx will contribute to this summer transfer window as well as the redevelopment of Elland Road.
Senior figures in the Leeds ownership group reached out to the shareholders about this in the days after the promotion was secured.
The amount that was targeted has been reached, even though certain existing investors declined the chance to spend more.

Leeds United fans can surely expect big things
The Elland Road faithful have plenty to be excited about with the club’s owners issuing £120million in new shares, a move that signals ambition and stability as the club returns to the Premier League.
This significant cash injection will primarily fund the redevelopment of the iconic stadium, modernising it to enhance the matchday experience and boost revenue through improved facilities.
Additionally, the funds will bolster the summer transfer window, allowing Leeds to target key signings to strengthen the squad.
Season | Points | Wins | Draws | Losses | Goal Difference |
2023/24 | 90 | 27 | 9 | 10 | 38 |
2024/25 | 100 | 29 | 13 | 4 | 65 |
With needs across multiple positions – including a top-tier goalkeeper, a prolific striker, and reinforcements at centre-back, left-back, and in attacking roles – this investment provides the resources to build a competitive team capable of avoiding relegation.
The financial boost, combined with increased Premier League broadcast and sponsorship revenue, ensures Leeds can operate within the Profitability and Sustainability Rules while pursuing their goals.
For fans, this development underscores the commitment of 49ers Enterprises to the club’s long-term success, offering hope for a revitalised squad and a stadium that matches their Premier League aspirations.
It’s a clear sign Leeds are gearing up to compete and thrive in the top flight.
