Leeds United are delighted to announce Sam Byram has re-signed for the club.

The full-back arrives back at Elland Road on a free transfer, following the expiration of his contract at fellow Sky Bet Championship side Norwich City.

The 29-year-old has penned a one-year deal with the Whites, running until the summer of 2024.

Byram began his career at Leeds United, coming through the youth setup at Thorp Arch and going on to become a first team regular.

He made his senior debut in the 4-0 Carabao Cup victory over Shrewsbury Town at Elland Road, at the age of 18.

Over the course of the next three-and-a-half seasons Byram went on to make a total of 143 appearances in all competitions, before joining Premier League side West Ham United for an undisclosed fee in January 2016.

During the 2018/19 campaign Byram spent time on loan at Nottingham Forest, before making a permanent move to Norwich City.

At Carrow Road, he linked up with current Leeds boss Daniel Farke, who was in charge of the Canaries from 2017-2021.

Following the appointment of Farke as Leeds manager in July, Byram was invited to train with Leeds and featured in pre-season games against AS Monaco, Nottingham Forest and Heart of Midlothian.

His performances caught the eye and he has now earned a contract with the club, becoming the third signing of the summer transfer window, following the arrivals of Ethan Ampadu and Karl Darlow.

Byram will again wear the number 25 shirt, the same number he wore during his previous spell with the club.

He could make his second debut for the Whites in Sunday’s Sky Bet Championship clash with Cardiff City at Elland Road, subject to EFL and FA approval.
