Speaking in his press conference, Leeds United manager Daniel Farke paid tribute to club legend Terry Yorath, who sadly passed away this week aged 75.

The Wales international progressed through the academy ranks and into the first team, making 198 appearances in one of the most successful eras in the Whites’ history.

Discussing the midfielder’s legacy in West Yorkshire and beyond, the boss spoke highly of the impact Yorath had during his nine-year spell at Elland Road.

“Sad news and of course at this moment all our thoughts and prayers are with his loved ones and his family,” Farke began.

“Very sad news for us because he was also a proper club legend and it is always sad to hear this. One thing is for sure, he will never be forgotten and always a part of our Leeds United family.

“Also, his legacy will live forever. We spoke about our Welsh warriors here, especially with Joe Rodon and Ethan Ampadu and all the others.

“He was definitely a role model as a Welsh warrior and he has done so, so well for us as a club. He will also live always further on in our hearts and will always be connected and always be a proper member of our Leeds United family.”
