Leeds will hope that these glamour fixtures make up for Germany fiasco
Leeds shouldn’t be blamed for their pre-season fixtures in Germany being cancelled.
Opponents and venues were arranged earlier in 2025. Written assurances were secured from both the German FA and the club’s tour operator.
Yet, at the end of June, Leeds were informed that they wouldn’t be granted a permit to play matches in front of spectators. The club has insisted they did everything possible to find a workaround. However, they were unable to do so given the short notice of the announcement.
Date Opponent Venue
19 July Manchester United Strawberry Arena, Stockholm
2 August Villarreal Elland Road, Leeds
9 August AC Milan Aviva Stadium, Dublin
Leeds’ remaining pre-season fixtures are against glamorous opponents and will give fans the opportunity to watch the team play overseas. The team has a significant following in Ireland, and the fixture against AC Milan looks like the highlight of the schedule.
Farke will aim to get his team up to speed in these games, ahead of Leeds’ first Premier League game against Everton on 18 August.
