New Leeds United signing Brenden Aaronson's career in 13 pictures

Brenden Aaronson is now a Leeds United player as the West Yorkshire side completes their first piece of business of the summer.

RB Salzburg batted away two bids for their midfielder in January as the Austrian side wanted to see the season out with Aaronson in their ranks. The clubs agreed on a £25m deal that would come into play at the conclusion of the 2021/2022 season provided United were still a Premier League side.
