In the meantime, for a bit of fun, we fired up the latest edition of Football Manager, and simulated the game into the future. We had a look at the starting XI and the manager it predicts will be on show for the Whites on the opening day of the 2020/21 season.
1. New season, new division
Unsurprisingly, FM has predicted Leeds to go the final few yards and finally secure promotion back to the Premier League. They open the 2020/21 season at home to Sheffield United. Here's how they line up: | Getty
2. GK: Kiko Casilla
The ex-Real Madrid man is still the main man between the sticks, with Will Huffer landing a new deal and securing a spot on the bench after Illan Meslier wasn't signed permanently. | Getty
3. RB: Kyle Walker-Peters
With Luke Ayling sold to Newcastle United, the Whites bring in the Spurs youngster for 5.5m. He's got bags of potential, and boasts some very impressive work rate stats. | Getty
4. CB: Dael Fry
Ben White never joined permanently, but Leeds found an excellent replacement in the Middlesbrough man. He cost a hefty 15.5m, but will be a fine investment for years to come. | Getty
5. CB: Liam Cooper
The Scotsman is still the skipper, and ends a decade-long wait to make his return to Premier League football by starting against the Blades. | Getty
6. LB: James Justin
The Whites splashed 20m to bag the versatile defender from Leicester City, and put him straight into the starting line-up ahead of Ezgjan Alioski. | Getty
