Leeds will end 13-year PL wait by signing Manchester United teen, three reasons why
Centre-back and right-back cover
Fosu-Mensah’s versatility has not gone unnoticed. Able to play anywhere across the back four, United’s number 24 can also ply his trade in holding midfield.
With Gaetano Berardi likely to fill the left-back slot with Charlie Taylor moving to Burnley, Luke Ayling is without cover on the right side of defence following Lewie Coyle’s loan move to Fleetwood.
Jansson is also suspended for the first two games of 2017-18, leaving just Liam Cooper and Matthew Pennington at centre-back.
Signing Fosu-Mensah would give Leeds a huge sigh of relief if any early injuries occur this season.
