00:00Leeds United have now confirmed that Elan Mellier will leave Ellen Road this summer when his contract expires, bringing an
00:11end to a six-year spell that saw the Frenchman become one of the club's most recognisable figures.
00:20Mellier initially arrived on loan from Lorient in 2019 before making the move permanently a year later. During his time
00:30in West Yorkshire, he made 215 appearances and kept 72 clean sheets for Leeds, playing a key role in two
00:39promotion-winning campaigns.
00:41The 26-year-old was instrumental in Leeds Championship title success in 2019-2020 and 24-25 while earning the
00:54Championship Golden Glove Award in 23-24.
00:58His performances helped establish him as one of the Championship's most reliable goalkeepers, but he really struggled to make an
01:07impact in the Premier League.
01:09Although his final season saw him lose his place due to the arrivals of Lucas Perry and the emergence of
01:16Carl Darlow, Mellier departs, having left a lasting mark on the club's modern history, especially in the Championship.
