Leeds United centre-back Tom Pearce made his fifth Championship appearance of the season in Sunday’s 2-0 win over Queens Park Rangers.
The 20-year-old has struggled for regular action this season, but played the full 90 minutes against QPR, and was voted the Sponsors’ Man of the Match.
Pearce’s current deal with the Whites will expire at the end of next month, however, and he is yet to agree terms on a fresh contract.
The Leeds fans have been extremely frustrated with a number of the club’s players this season, but they desperately want Pearce to be a part of the first-team squad next season.
Indeed, the supporters have urged the club to sort out a new deal for Pearce as soon as possible.
It does seem strange that the Championship outfit have allowed the young Englishman to reach this stage without signing a new deal, but that is indeed the case.
