Mateusz Klich - Offensive role limited Klich managed just one goal on 42 shots (18 on target) in 33 appearances this season along with 30 crosses (six accurate) and three corners.

Impact After racking up 92 crosses (21 accurate) for Leeds in the Championship back in 2019-20, Klich has seen his crosses and goals drop every season to this year's new lows. While the midfielder should continue to feature prominently in the starting XI for the club next year, he is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value moving forward.

Kalvin Phillips - Starts final six outings Phillips featured in the starting XI in the club's last six contests in which he registered two shots (zero on target), eight crosses (two accurate) and three corners.

Impact Phillips was limited to just 20 appearances (18 starts) for Leeds this season, offering limited offensive upside when given the chance to play. Given his middling offensive upside, Phillips shouldn't be expected to offer more than mid-range fantasy value heading into next season.

Rodrigo Moreno - Ends year in goal drought Rodrigo failed to score a goal in his final six outings of the season despite registering five shots (two on target).

Impact Despite the end of year slump, Rodrigo registered six goals on 47 shots (18 on target) in 31 appearances (27 starts). While Rodrigo was well off the pace set by Raphinha (11 goals), he should continue to offer top-half fantasy value, though he will be hard-pressed to get back over the 10-goal, a threshold he hasn't hit since 2017-18 when with Valencia.

Daniel James - Ends season suspended James will serve the final game of his suspension in next season's opening match in the Premier League.

Impact James was suspended the final two matches of this past campaign and Leeds managed to get a late win en route to staying up in the league. It was a hot-and-cold season for James, similar to the rest of the side, and he failed to score in any start under manager Jesse Marsch. He finished with four goals and four assists from 32 league appearances (29 starts), something he'll aim to improve next campaign.

Brenden Aaronson - Headed for England Aaronson agreed to a transfer and five-year deal with Leeds United from RB Salzburg on Thursday.

Impact Aaronson saw action in 41 matches across all competitions for Salzburg last season, compiling six goals and 10 assists along the way. The United States international should help Leeds generate some more offense after the club managed just 42 goals last year and barely avoided relegation.

Patrick Bamford - Misses finale with COVID-19 Bamford wasn't an option for Sunday's finale after testing positive for COVID-19.

Impact Bamford was set to be an emergency option Sunday but COVID-19 prevented that from happening. It may have been for the best because he probably wasn't 100 percent and he'd appeared in just four matches since September. It was a lost season for Bamford, but fortunately for him, Leeds managed to get the win and stay in the Premier League. He'll need to rest his foot over the summer with hopes of returning to 2020/21 levels after compiling just two goals and two assists in nine appearances this past season.

Luke Ayling - Out after knee surgery Ayling will miss up to four months after undergoing knee surgery, according to the team.

Impact Ayling originally suffered the injury in September and then missed a couple months after having a minor surgery. After playing a few more months, he got the surgery he probably should've originally received and he'll be back to the pitch in August or September. For him, the hope is that he'll be playing for Leeds in the Premier League. Once again, he was a rock for Leeds, compiling two goals, two assists, 31 crosses and 74 tackles in 26 starts this season.

He's probably not ready to return, but there's no question he'll want to push through the issue to help his team, though he may only be able to go 10 or so minutes Sunday.
