Off the pitch, the squad leans on partners who mostly keep life fairly grounded.
Here’s a closer look at the WAGs behind Leeds’s squad ahead of the Premier League season.
Sandra Jerze, wife of Dominic Calvert-Lewin
Sandra Jerze married Dominic Calvert-Lewin in March 2025, following several years together as a couple. The pair welcomed a daughter in the summer of 2023, adding a new dimension to Dominic’s career during his final years at Everton.
Sandra has largely stayed out of the spotlight since, though she has continued to support Dominic as he made his big-money move to Leeds this summer and looks to fire the Whites up the table following their promotion back to the Premier League.
Rafaela Oliveira, partner of Lucas Perri
Rafaela Oliveira has supported Lucas Perri through his rise from Brazilian football to becoming Leeds’s number one following his move from Lyon.

Matilda Olsson, partner of Gabriel Gudmundsson
Matilda Olsson has been with Gabriel Gudmundsson for around a decade, the pair having built their relationship since their teenage years in Sweden. She is also a footballer herself, having played for her hometown club, Halmstad.
In February 2026, the couple announced they were expecting a baby, sharing the happy news together on Instagram. Their son, Charlie, arrived during the World Cup; meanwhile, Matilda posted an emotional message about missing Gabriel while cheering him on for Sweden.
The family have since settled into life together following his move to Leeds from Lille.
