Leeds United are moving closer to sealing Premier League safety this spring and Brenden Aaronson is playing his part along the way. Aaronson assisted once on Saturday in the Lilywhites’ 3-0 home victory over Wolves, moving Leeds United nine points clear from the relegation zone. The U.S. men’s national team midfielder now has assists in back-to-back matches and five for the season. James Justin opened the scoring for Leeds United after 18 minutes, using an acrobatic finish in the box to make it 1-0. Aaronson teed up Noah Okafor for Leeds’ second goal only two minutes later, giving the hosts a comfortable advantage. Aaronson raced down the right wing before crossing into the box for Okafor to slot into the bottom-right corner. | GOAL: NOAH OKAFOR DOUBLES THE LEAD FOR LEEDS UNITED!Leeds United 2-0 Wolves. pic.twitter.com/3K4ZYY70YD— TheGoalsZone (@TheGoalsZone) April 18, 2026Dominic Calvert-Lewin iced the result in second-half stoppage time by scoring from the penalty spot.
