Our thoughts are with Christine and all of the Yorath family today, at the sad loss of Terry.
also today:
He made his professional debut in February 2003 at age 19. His breakthrough was accelerated by the club’s “financial chaos” and the departure of star defenders like Rio Ferdinand and Jonathan Woodgate. He became a regular starter during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons, playing primarily as a centre-back but also covering at left-back. He was a key part of the squad that reached the 2006 championship play-off final but after 95 total appearances for Leeds, he was sold to Sheffield United in January 2007 for approximately £1.75 million as the club continued to struggle financially. Following his retirement from professional football in 2021, Matt remains closely connected to his boyhood club and is a matchday host and regular pundit for Leeds United matches. Have a great day pal.
