Brenden Aaronson leaves Leeds United as summer exodus gathers pace under Daniel Farke

Brenden Aaronson will not be returning to Leeds United for pre-season training on Monday after sealing a move to Union Berlin. The American will be joining the Bundesliga outfit on a season-long loan deal as he becomes the third high profile player to leave in a matter of days after the club’s relegation from the Premier League.

He follows Robin Koch and Diego Llorente out of the exit door after their respective switches to Eintract Frankfurt and Roma. Aaronson only joined the Whites last summer as he made the £25m switch from Red Bull Salzburg, but, despite making 40 appearances in all competitions, he found the going difficult at Elland Road.

As such, he will be looking to reignite his career in the German capital with Union Berlin, who finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season and will compete in the Champions League group stages this season.
