In less than a fortnight’s time, Leeds United will be jetting off to Australia to continue their preparations for the new Premier League season. The Whites will be there for around two weeks and they’ll take in three friendly matches along the way as they split their time between Gold Coast, Brisbane and Perth.
Jesse Marsch’s side will start their tour of Australia with a clash against Brisbane Roar, before they take on fellow Premier League sides Aston Villa and Crystal Palace. Leeds have a sizeable antipodean fan base and this won’t be the first time they’ve made the journey to Australia.
The last time they played on Australian soil was in 2019 under Marcelo Bielsa, and they made the journey back in 2002, too, with the likes of Harry Kewell and Mark Viduka in the side.
