Leeds United have secured the signing of Wales international Harry Wilson, adding the attacking midfielder on a free transfer. Wilson, 29, inked a four-year contract with the club after his deal with Fulham concluded. He arrives having registered his most productive Premier League scoring season last term, netting 10 goals in 36 appearances for the Cottagers.

Wilson expressed that Leeds' proactive pursuit made the decision clear. "As a player, you want to play for a team which you feel like they want you," he stated. He acknowledged the pressure that comes with representing a club of Leeds' stature, saying, "To play for Leeds, you have to have a big personality. You have to be able to deal with pressure."

This move marks Leeds' first summer acquisition. The club has also been linked with other potential signings, including Shea Charles and Julian Brandt, as they prepare for the upcoming season.
