'It was really easy' - Pascal Struijk's first words after penning new Leeds United contract

Pascal Struijk insists extending his Leeds United contract was an easy decision to make, as he continues to strive towards becoming the ‘best version’ of himself. The defender has penned a new four-and-a-half year contract extension at Elland Road, keeping him tied down until the summer of 2027.

Struijk has been one of Jesse Marsch’s most consistent performers this season, underlining his versatility by making the left-back spot his own ahead of Junior Firpo, despite him being a centre-back by trade. The 23-year-old’s displays have seen him recognised on the international scene, too, as he was included in Louis van Gaal’s provisional Netherlands World Cup squad.

After securing his future at Elland Road, he’ll be keen to earn a full international call-up and further establish himself as one of the first names on Marsch’s Premier League teamsheet.
