Overview
- A contract announced Thursday, August 20, 2026, confirmed Aaronson signed a three-year deal that keeps him at Elland Road through 2029.
- Aaronson played 37 Premier League games last season, scoring four goals and providing five assists as a key part of Daniel Farke’s attack.
- He returned from the 2026 World Cup, where he helped the United States reach the Round of 16, and then produced a strong pre-season that included goals against Liverpool and Manchester United.
- The extension follows recent long-term renewals for teammates Joe Rodon and Jayden Bogle and fits Leeds’ summer strategy of retaining core players while adding new signings.
- Beyond on-field value, Aaronson’s commitment reinforces his ties to the local community and reduces near-term transfer speculation while increasing the chance he features in Leeds’ season opener at the City Ground.
