Leeds United defender Junior Firpo has terminated his contract deal with club after what happened

Leeds United defender Junior Firpo has spoken about his Whites future just days after celebrating promotion at Elland Road.

Leeds United promotion hero Junior Firpo knows as much as the fans when it comes to his Elland Road future but there are some things he wants them to know.

Firpo scored his fourth goal of the season in Monday’s 6-0 victory over Stoke City as Leeds did their job, before Burnley beat Sheffield United to make automatic promotion a certainty for both the Whites and the Clarets. The attack-minded left-back played a full role in the celebrations at Elland Road long into the evening, saluting thousands of fans who sang his name outside the East Stand as fireworks and smoke flares were lit.

Junior Firpo’s Leeds United contract

It was undoubtedly the high point of a four-year stint with Leeds that has included more injuries than he would have wanted, a relegation that no one wanted and a 2024/25 season that ended at Wembley but not in the way he wanted. Speaking to the YEP earlier this season he spoke of his desire to win promotion with Leeds and Gold Cup qualification with the Dominican Republic national team he captains. His contract is due to expire this summer and back in November he was in the dark over his future at club level, but at the very least he knew that if he was to say goodbye to Leeds he wanted to do so with Premier League status secured.

Speaking to the YEP again on Friday in the Bremner Suite where he and his team-mates sprayed one another with champagne on Monday night as promotion became a reality, Firpo admits he’s still no clearer on what the immediate future holds.
