Leeds United Sign Lukas Nmecha From Wolfsburg

Leeds United have signed 26-year-old German international Lukas Nmecha on a free transfer from Wolfsburg, with the move set to become official on July 1. Nmecha, who previously played for Manchester City and several clubs on loan, scored 19 goals in 85 appearances for Wolfsburg but was hampered by injuries last season. He has agreed to a two-year contract and is Leeds' first major signing ahead of their Premier League return following their Championship-winning campaign. Nmecha, who can play across the front line, has seven senior caps for Germany and was the top scorer at the 2021 European Under-21 Championship. He expressed enthusiasm for Leeds' possession-based approach under manager Daniel Farke and aims to boost their attacking options. The signing signals Leeds' intent to strengthen their squad for top-flight competition.
