Leeds United transfer deadline day LIVE - August 31
Key Events
- Transfer window closes at 11pm this evening.
Where are we at, then?
So....
Leeds United’s headline move today has been the arrival of long-term target Daniel James from Manchester United.
The Wales international has made the switch over the Pennines in a deal worth £25million and put pen to paper on a five-year deal.
In the departures... Helder Costa is close to a move to La Liga outfit Valencia in the wake of the James transfer.
Elsewhere, a trio of Leeds youngsters have been moved off the books. Bryce Hosannah has joined Wrexham while Jordan Stevens and Robbie Gotts have moved to Barrow.
All three of those are permanent deals.
In terms of incomings the Whites appear to be done but we’re awaiting news over whether Costa will secure his move to Spain before tonight’s deadline.
Stay tuned...
