Leeds United’s Global Takeover: 14 Players Called Up for International Duty This Month!

by Alex Matthews

Leeds United fans will have plenty to watch this month as fourteen players from the club head out on international duty.

From Europe to Asia and even the USA, many Leeds men will be proudly wearing their national shirts during the November international break.

The action begins on Wednesday morning when some of Leeds’ young talents kick off their campaigns.

It’s a big moment for the lads, and also a proud one for the club, showing how strong the Whites’ squad has become under Daniel Farke.

Young Leeds Talents on Global Stage

The first names to feature are Sam Chambers and Luke Matykiewicz, both in the U19 setup.

Chambers could be in action for Scotland U19s against Latvia, while Matykiewicz lines up for Northern Ireland U19s against Malta, both matches starting bright and early at 10 am (UK time).

Another rising name, Jayden Lienou, is also ready to go as Wales U19s face Japan later that day.

These matches will be a good test for the young Whites, giving them a chance to shine and represent Leeds on the world stage.

First-Team Players Also in Action

It’s not just the youth teams in the spotlight. Some of Leeds’ biggest names are also heading out for their national sides.

The Wales squad includes Karl Darlow, Joe Rodon, Ethan Ampadu, and Dan James, who will first play against Liechtenstein before facing North Macedonia.

Both games are important for their Euro qualification hopes, and the Leeds lads will hope to make a strong impact.

In other fixtures, Ilia Gruev featured for Turkey, taking on Bulgaria and Georgia in back-to-back games.

Rory Mahady will play for Scotland U21s, while Gabriel Gudmundsson joins Sweden for tough fixtures against Switzerland and Slovenia.

Meanwhile, Brenden Aaronson will travel far for his country, as he plays for the USA against Paraguay and Uruguay, two strong South American sides.
