Three Premier League spells
Leeds United's time in the competition falls into three distinct spells.
| Spell | Seasons | How it ended |
|---|---|---|
| First spell | 1992/93–2003/04 | Relegated |
| Second spell | 2020/21–2022/23 | Relegated |
| Third spell | 2025/26 | Still in the league in 2026/27 |
The pattern is clear: the first two spells ended with relegation, while the present one is still active. That makes Leeds a club with separate Premier League chapters rather than one continuous stay.
They have also shown an ability to come back after dropping out. Their place in 2026/27 belongs to the latest of those returns.
