    Harrogate's Archie Gray wins EFL Championship Young Player of the Season

    Harrogate’s Archie Gray has won EFL Championship Young Player of the Season at the EFL awards.

    The former St John Fisher’s Catholic High School pupil and Leeds United midfielder made his debut in the club’s opening game against Cardiff City at Elland Road in August.

    Since then, Gray, 18, has been a regular name on the team sheet for United this season playing at both right back and central midfield. He has made 46 appearances for the club across all competitions this season.

    In January, he signed a new contract with the Whites until 2028.

    The youngster picked up the award at the EFL Awards 2024, which was held at a ceremony in London.

    On winning the award, Gray said:

    "I'm honoured to win this award, having heard the previous names that have won it. I've just got to stay humble and keep on working hard because I've come a long way. I've gained a lot of experience and learned a lot of new things along the way.
    "I trusted my ability but I've been lucky with the teammates and manager that I've got. Since I've come in when I was 15, my teammates have all been really helpful with me. Especially this season, Joe Rodon and Ethan Ampadu when I've been moving to right-back and teaching me a lot of things and analysing things with me after the game.”

    He signed his first professional contract with Leeds United in March last year.

    He is the great-nephew of Leeds legend, and Kirkby Overblow resident, Eddie Gray.
