Ethan Ampadu Signs Four-Year Deal to Stay at Leeds United

The contract secures the club captain as a leadership anchor while chairman Paraag Marathe signals plans to retain manager Daniel Farke.

Overview

  • The club confirmed on Thursday that Ampadu has signed a new four-year contract that keeps him at Elland Road until the summer of 2030.
  • Ampadu was Leeds captain this season and won both the club’s Player of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year awards for 2025/26.
  • The 25-year-old has made 126 appearances for Leeds, recovered from two serious knee injuries, and holds 62 caps for Wales.
  • Chairman Paraag Marathe said keeping Ampadu was an early summer priority and described Daniel Farke as “a big part of our future.”
  • Leeds view the signing as a move to preserve dressing-room leadership and continuity ahead of the summer transfer window while building on the club’s return to the Premier League.
