Everything we know about Pascal Struijk’s Leeds United contract: Exit speculation, wages and more
Pascal Struijk has continued to be one of the most important players at Leeds United this season.
The 26-year-old has played a key role under Daniel Farke in the Premier League after helping the Whites to promotion last campaign.
He has featured across 25 league appearances this campaign, missing just three games for the Elland Road outfit to this point.
The Netherlands national has only continued to thrive since the change to a three-back formation, and Leeds look set to avoid relegation as a result.
That has prompted interest in Struijk from elsewhere, and now MOT Leeds News has rounded up everything you need to know about his contract.

What is Pascal Struijk’s current contract situation at Leeds United?
There have been rumours surrounding the defender in recent months, but right now the Whites can be confident in keeping hold of their man.
Struijk put pen to paper on new terms in LS11 in December 2021 as he committed his future to the Whites until the summer of 2027.
He was delighted to sign a fresh contract, and it is fair to say that he has made good on his stint in Yorkshire ever since.
The former Ajax youngster now has a year remaining on his deal, so he could be available for a cut-price deal moving into the summer.
Leeds currently pay him a reported weekly wage of £50,000, which equates to a yearly salary in the region of £2.6million.
A new contract could be put on the table moving into the summer, or another outfit could make their own offer to sign Struijk.
When could Struijk leave Leeds?
Farke and Co. are bound to want to tie the defender’s future down after 186 appearances for the Elland Road outfit.
There will be questions over Struijk’s next steps moving into the summer, especially when his contract ticks down to leave him with 12 months remaining.
Considering the defender has been linked with Villarreal already, there is only likely to be further exit links when the summer window opens.
It will be interesting to see what he wants to do as the final decision ultimately lies in the Dutchman’s hands at Elland Road.
