Paul signed on as a non-contract player at the start of the 2008-09 season.
He made his first start for the club in the 4-0 defeat of Crystal Palace at Elland Road in the 2nd round of the Carling Cup on 26 August 2008.
Leeds manager Gary McAllister was so impressed with the veteran's display that two days later he gave Paul a contract until the end of the season.
Telfer has another Leeds connection in Gordon Strachan. Paul Telfer followed manager Gordon Strachan to Southampton from Coventry City on a free transfer in November 2001.
Telfer followed Strachan one more time for what must be the pinnacle of his career - a stay at Celtic and the SPL. Like Strachan Paul was born in Edinburgh.
Paul won B and U21 honours for Scotland but after winning his solitary full Scotland cap he decided to opt out of international football.
