Firpo leaves Leeds following end of contract

Leeds United left-back Junior Firpo has left the club following the end of his contract.

The Dominican Republic international was offered a new deal at Elland Road but is expected to re-join Real Betis on a free transfer.

Firpo moved to Leeds in 2021 for a fee in the region of £13m from Barcelona who had signed him from Betis in 2019.

The 28-year-old’s first two seasons were spent in the Premier League before they were relegated in 2022-23.

Firpo departs having helped Leeds to the Championship title last season as they secured promotion back into the top-flight.

He made 119 appearances for the club, including 35 during the 2024-25 campaign as he scored four goals and provided 10 assists.
