Stuart Dallas footage emerges after Leeds United win v Rotherham
Leeds United defender Stuart Dallas was spotted in the Elland Road tunnel after a 3-0 victory over Rotherham United on Saturday 10 February.
Having recorded his 10th Championship assist of the season, Georginio Rutter was videoed embracing the Northern Ireland international, who has not played since the 2021/22 season after suffering a broken femur.
Despite this, the 32-year-old is still very much a valued team member in the Leeds squad, even if a return to Daniel Farke’s side remains to be seen.
The beautiful moment was captured by Leeds’ official media team and posted via X on Saturday.
Leeds United legend
Considering Leeds’ full-back worries throughout the January transfer window, the appearance of Dallas will remind the fans exactly what the club are missing out on with the defender still unavailable.
At the age of 32, it is unlikely that Dallas will ever become a consistent starter at Elland Road, but will forever be in the hearts of Leeds fans for years to come.
The Northern Ireland man joined Leeds in August 2015 from Brentford, and would eventually go on to make 267 appearances, registering 28 goals and 18 assists.
He is on the same level of cult status as Patrick Bamford and Luke Ayling, who all worked to bring the Whites back to the Premier League after an incredibly impressive 2019/20 season under Marcelo Bielsa.
The full-back’s presence around the ground will still be vital for Farke and his squad this season, as Premier League promotion looks to be on the cards yet again. The current manager has done an incredible job so far, although that comes as no surprise after his promotion seasons with Norwich City.
Even without a memorable goal celebration like Ayling’s, Dallas will be no less remembered at Elland Road and will be appreciated at the club for the rest of his life.
