00:00Daniel Farker's Leeds United could still finish as high as 11th this season if results elsewhere go their way.
00:09A remarkable achievement considering where the club was just months ago at the beginning of the campaign.
00:16Survival was the only target for many supporters after Leeds returned to the Premier League under significant pressure and with
00:23memories of relegation still fresh.
00:29Farker has transformed the mood around Ellen Road.
00:33His side have shown resilience, attacking quality and a renewed sense of belief throughout the season.
00:39Deadly pulling themselves away from danger and into the comfort of mid-table.
00:44For a newly promoted side expected to struggle as well even the possibility of an 11th place finish highlighted the
00:53process Leeds have made under the German team.
00:57Daniel Farker is rumoured to have a three-year contract extension lined up for him as well after this season.
01:05Much of the credit will go to Farker's calm leadership and ability to rebuild confidence within the squad.
01:11What once looked like a season focused purely on survival could now end as one of genuine overachievement for Leeds
01:19United.
01:22To be honest I understand also all the questions about the future and I promise also like once we have
01:30achieved our goals also to speak about these topics and I don't want to hide away.
01:35But allow me perhaps a little look back also because for me it's also important today on such a day
01:46when we can speak about this type of questions also to express really my heartfelt gratitude.
01:53And really a big, big thank you first of all to the club who trusted me also like to come
02:01in difficult moments into this club and to lead this club into hopefully a better future.
02:08I was trusted to overtake the flagship, the first team and to run the sport, to run the football for
02:14this club.
02:16And yeah, I will forever be grateful to be allowed to work in this responsible role for this big club.
02:25Big thank you of course also to my players, my staff, not just during this season but really from the
02:32first day I walked and it was a joy to work with them.
02:35And yeah, pretty, pretty thankful also to them and last but not least but for me also like the biggest
02:41thank you goes out to all supporters.
02:43Because really from the first day I got so much support, so much trust, so much faith and so much
02:50positivity and I felt so much hope that everyone was hoping that it would work out more or less this
02:58project.
