Leeds faced the daunting prospect of a return to the Championship when 2022/23 campaign ended, with a rebuild necessary for the future prospects of the club.
Since that fateful day at Elland Road when relegation was confirmed, a lot has happened.
The club has been taken over, appointed a new manager and lost a raft of high-profile squad members.
Among those to have departed are Rasmus Kristensen, Robin Koch, Tyler Adams, the popular Jack Harrison and the considerably less popular Weston McKennie.
There have, however, been new signings. Karl Darlow, Sam Byram, Ethan Ampadu and Joel Piroe have arrived on permanent deals, while Djed Spence and Joe Rodon have joined on loan.
More additions are expected too, with Glen Kamara and Ilia Gruev strongly linked.
With the transfer window set to close, The Yorkshire Post has taken a look back at some of the names to have been linked with Leeds this summer.
