Leeds United have reached an agreement to sign Harry Wilson as a free agent, according to sources. The 29-year-old winger, whose contract with Fulham is expiring, was targeted by several clubs but Leeds have won the race for his signature.
Deal details
The Wales international is expected to undergo a medical in due course before joining Leeds on a long-term contract with a higher salary. The move marks a successful conclusion to Leeds' pursuit of Wilson, who they attempted to sign last year only for a deal to collapse on deadline day.
Player profile
Wilson, a versatile attacker capable of playing on either wing or as an attacking midfielder, has been a key figure for Fulham since joining the club. His experience in the Championship and Premier League, along with his international pedigree with Wales, made him a sought-after free agent this summer.
Leeds, under manager Daniel Farke, are building a squad capable of challenging for promotion back to the Premier League. The addition of Wilson adds creativity and goal threat to their attacking options.
