Leeds United youngster has earned a contract extension.
Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa was faced with a stark choice last December amid a goalkeeping crisis for the club.
Ahead of the game with Brentford at Elland Road, injuries left Leeds needing to choose between Will Huffer and Kamil Miazek.
Miazek, 22, was snubbed in favour of Huffer, 20.
Huffer seized his chance, and Miazek appeared well down the pecking order, especially with Kiko Casilla joining the club in January.
At that stage it seemed unlikely Miazek’s contract at Leeds would be renewed.
A terrific end to the season for the under-23s appears to have saved his career for the Whites.
Leeds confirmed over the weekend that Miazek has been offered a contract extension.
Miazek played a key role in the under-23s winning two trophies.
He solidified his place in the side, shining when Huffer was on loan at Barnet in early 2019 and keeping his place.
It’s still a big ask for him to crack the first team, but Leeds aren’t ready to give up on him, and he has earned that.
