BREAKING; Leeds star Darko Gyabi agrees to re-sign.

Gyabi, 20, will play under Wayne Rooney’s stewardship after an encouraging stint in the second half of last term at Home Park.

A full agreement is now understood to be in place between both clubs and the midfielder, who has also featured in the Premier League and Championship for Leeds.

Daniel Farke and the staff at Elland Road are amid a considerable squad rebuild with account figures having to be declared by tomorrow, as Gyabi departs for further senior experience.

Gyabi’s loan to Rooney’s Plymouth will take down the wage bill nominally, assisting with the Leeds United accounts, but former Whites goalkeeper Paul Robinson [29 June] told Football Insider there could still be major sales around the corner.

Robinson is also confident Leeds can still achieve promotion if they sell the likes of Crysencio Summerville and Wilfried Gnonto to help with the finances, provided they maintain the “nucleus” of the squad.

Incomings will also be imminent, with Leeds planning to strengthen their midfield area which would deny Gyabi regular opportunities in the Championship at Elland Road this year.

Gyabi, formerly of Manchester City before signing professionally across the Pennines at Leeds, will relish the chance to play regularly again in the Championship under the guidance of Rooney, and will aim to return to Leeds and challenge for a first-team berth.

The 6’5” England Under-20 midfielder’s current deal at the club runs until the summer of 2026.
