With the possible addition of Connor Roberts it would mean Leeds United have four of the current Wales squad. We have had some decent Welsh footballers over the years so lets put together our greatest Leeds United Wales side. Ive started the side off with some obvious players from top of my head.
Throw out some more names and will update the side if there are better players I have missed.

Not Yorath too? What a player he was in his day.
Struggling to really think of a Welsh player for us that I’ve never liked. They all seem to put in a shift. Tyler maybe the odd one out but his ability is not in question. I still quite liked him though.

Massive fan of Yorath too. And Flynn. Got to see them play regular as a kid. Raised half Welsh with a love of
Welsh national teams and players. Charles was my
Dad's football hero.

I remember Mickey Thomas, I know ex Man U, but even though it was only one season with us I think he played an important part a sort of super sub type role for us under Wilkinson and our promotion in 1990 and I remember seeing him make his Elland Road debut in our opening home game of that 88/90 season following our crushing defeat away at Newcastle and thought even though he was getting on a bit he was still very skillful and contributed well in that game which was crucial we won to get our campaign back on track and still remember with great fondness that last minute winning
goal against Middlesbrough which was an own goal rolling into the south stand goal which I was behind and sent everyone into euphoric celebration.
