Leeds United\u2019s official material identifies Ethan Ampadu as the first-team captain, and the club announced in June 2026 that he had signed a new long-term contract through 2030. \ufffd<\/p>\n<p>Leeds United +1<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udfe1 What about Pascal Struijk?<\/p>\n<p>Struijk has nevertheless been an important figure in the Leeds leadership group. Earlier reports described him as vice-captain, while Farke has spoken about spreading leadership responsibility across the squad.<\/p>\n<p>More recently, Farke said that Ampadu would continue to wear the captain\u2019s armband, with Jaka Bijol, Joe Rodon, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and James Justin forming a wider leadership group. \ufffd<\/p>\n<p>Leeds News<\/p>\n<p>That means Struijk could certainly remain an influential senior figure around the dressing room, but there is no reliable confirmation that he has replaced Ampadu as captain.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd25 Why the story has attracted attention<\/p>\n<p>The idea of Struijk becoming captain is understandable. The Dutch defender has spent years at Elland Road and has developed into an experienced member of the squad. His leadership, defensive presence and familiarity with the club make him a natural candidate for responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>Ampadu, meanwhile, has established himself as one of Leeds&#8217; key leaders. The club describes him as its captain and highlighted his leadership during their return to the Premier League.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding:
