Jayden Bogle: Leeds have Premier League-leading weapon Daniel Farke can't lose

Leeds United scored 49 goals in the Premier League last season, and Jayden Bogle played a bigger role in that than many may realise.

The 25-year-old faced some question marks over whether he'd be a viable starting option for Leeds in the Premier League.

Indeed, he was relegated from the top flight with Sheffield United twice prior to his Elland Road move, with the latest coming in 2023-24.

Bogle started 32 times in the Premier League for Blades that year, and as a result, hadn't yet proven himself at the level.

He had, however, shown himself to be a quality performer in the Championship, thus prompting Daniel Farke to take a chance on him in the summer of 2024.

And so whilst he may not have provided 10 goal contributions last term as he did in 2024-25, Bogle was invaluable to Leeds in a key area of the pitch; one which may surprise a lot of people.

Where did Jayden Bogle lead Premier League in 2025-26?

Starting 32 of Leeds' 38 Premier League games in 2025-26, Bogle was trusted with retaining his role as Farke's primary right-back option.

His performances didn't routinely grab headlines or earn him any end-of-season awards, and thus, his contribution perhaps went under the radar slightly.

That can happen when you're an uber-reliable and consistent performer though, as fans grow used to solid displays on the regular.

But, there was one department that Bogle was far from solid in last season, rather, he was the best in the Premier League.

As per FotMob, no Premier League right-back won more possessions in the final third than Bogle's 16 in 2025-26, proving just how instrumental he is to the Whites' attack.

Looking at his one goal and two assists from 34 league outings last term, however, and it's easy to forget or simply not realise his importance.

Why Bogle is primed to become assist machine in 2026-27

With Leeds now plotting another ambitious summer transfer window after their impressive debut season back in the Premier League, Farke will no doubt be looking to strengthen in attack.

Should the Whites welcome some new quality forward additions to Elland Road over the coming weeks, then Bogle could be the biggest beneficiary of a sharpened Leeds cutting edge next term.

His seven big chances created last season ranked him in the top 7.1 percentile of all Premier League right-backs.

Meanwhile, his 70 touches in the opposition box and 3.16 expected assists (xA) placed him in the leading 8.3 and 11.9 percentiles among his positional peers respectively.

Contracted with the Whites until the summer of 2028, Bogle shouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon.

And, given his league-leading ability to win the ball high up the pitch, Farke would be losing a major weapon in his tactical armoury without him.
