Goalkeeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell is the latest Leeds rising star to sign a new deal with the Championship club.

Leeds United announced on the club’s official academy Twitter account that the 20-year-old had penned a new three-year-deal which will see him remain at the club until 2020.

Peacock-Farrell has made regular appearances for the Under-23s squad, but has only made one appearance for the first team.

The young goalkeeper made his first team debut against Queens Park Rangers at the end of the 2015/16 season, where the 20-year-old played the full 90 minutes and saw the game end in a 1-1 draw.

The Leeds academy tweeted the news that the keeper had penned a new deal on Sunday.
