Ex-Leeds United man set to join new club, Rotherham United eye 32-goal striker

Leeds United finished their 2020/21 season on a high, as they blasted their way to a fourth win on the trot with a 3-1 victory against West Brom at Elland Road - a result that saw the Whites secure a 9th place finish.

The Whites finished the campaign just three points off a place in Europe, and Marcelo Bielsa's side will be delighted with such a strong return to the return to the top tier.

Speaking after the game, Bielsa said: “I thought it was an unforgettable game. It was a great homage to two players that stop belonging to Leeds. The responses they got only players that give a lot deserve it.

“The performance of Pablo today indicates he deserved more minutes than the ones I gave him this year. Berardi after such a long time not playing showed he can still be current.

“The most important thing is that their public, his team-mates, the staff showed their recognition to those two players.”

Meanwhile, down in the Championship, it was heartbreak for Valerien Ismael's Barnsley, who were knocked out of the play-off semi-finals with a 1-1 draw (2-1 agg.) away to Swansea City, who now head into the Wembley final against Brentford, who defeated Bournemouth to keep their dreams of Premier League football alive.

Elsewhere, it's set to a be a busy summer at both Rotherham United and Sheffield Wednesday, who will both be looking to rebuild after being relegated to League One.
