Leeds United Agree £10m Deal for James Justin from Leicester

News summary

Leeds United have agreed a £10 million deal with Leicester City to sign versatile full-back James Justin, who is currently undergoing a medical at Thorp Arch ahead of the transfer completion. The 27-year-old, who has almost 100 Premier League appearances and is a one-cap England international, is set to be Leeds' tenth signing this summer as the club seeks to strengthen their defense following a heavy defeat to Arsenal. Despite a recent minor injury, Justin is expected to join Leeds quickly and provide much-needed experience and attacking support at the back, with manager Daniel Farke hoping to leverage his versatility primarily as a right-back. Leeds have already invested heavily this transfer window, with their spending set to exceed £100 million as they aim to improve both defensively and offensively to secure their Premier League status. The signing is also anticipated to prompt the departure of Isaac Schmidt to Werder Bremen, and Leeds continue to explore further attacking reinforcements. Leeds face Sheffield Wednesday in the Carabao Cup before resuming Premier League action against Newcastle United, where Justin could make his debut.
