Leeds Morning Round-Up, Saturday 7th November 2026: Farke Reflects on Archie Gray Ahead of Tottenham Reunion

Daniel Farke has been looking back on the tough call to let Archie Gray leave Elland Road, ahead of what will be his first "proper" reunion with his former midfielder when Tottenham visit Leeds (LeedsUnited.com). Farke made a notable claim about Gray as he previewed facing him for the first time since his exit, with the youngster having played 52 games under the German before his 2024 departure (LeedsLive).

Staying on the Spurs theme, a former Leeds player has revealed he never actually wanted to leave Elland Road, explaining he was forced to take a pay cut to join Tottenham (LeedsLive). It's a reminder of how reluctantly some fan favourites have moved on from Leeds over the years.

Elsewhere, the Yorkshire Evening Post's new Under The Spotlight column has thrown its support behind James Trafford, with contributor Chris O'Connor backing the goalkeeper to bounce back at Leeds (Yorkshire Evening Post).

Looking ahead, Leeds host Tottenham Hotspur at Elland Road in their final Premier League fixture before the November international break, and supporters can check the latest coverage and kick-off details for the game (Yorkshire Evening Post).
