Popular defender signs new contract.
Leeds United have announced that full-back Gaetano Berardi has signed a new three year deal at Elland Road.
The new terms agreed by the Swiss defender means Berardi, who can play at both right and left back, will remain at the club until at least the end of the 2019/20 season.
Berardi joined Leeds from Italian side Sampdoria in 2014 and has gone on to become a massive cult hero at the club, due to his energetic and passionate performances.
The 28 year-old has made a total of 83 appearances for the Whites, with his latest coming in last weekend’s 3-2 victory over Bolton Wanderers.
He becomes the latest player to sign a new contract with the club in the last seven days, following Kalvin Phillips and Tyler Denton.
