DEAL CONFIRM: Leeds United have secured the signing of Argentine midfielder Emiliano Buendía on a free transfer, with the deal reportedly worth £6.8 million in wages and signing bonuses.

The former Aston Villa star is set to bolster Leeds’ attacking midfield options as they push for Premier League stability.

Buendía, 28, was previously at Aston Villa, where he played a crucial role in their attacking setup. However, injuries and competition for places saw his game time limited in recent seasons. After his contract situation with Villa took an unexpected turn, Leeds swooped in to sign him without a transfer fee, marking a significant coup for the club.

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke, who previously worked with Buendía at Norwich City, played a key role in convincing the player to join. Farke is said to be eager to reunite with the playmaker, hoping he can replicate the form that once made him one of the Championship’s best players.

Buendía’s arrival is expected to provide Leeds with additional creativity in midfield as they aim to improve their attacking output. Fans are hopeful that his technical ability and vision will make an immediate impact at Elland Road.

The Argentine is expected to be unveiled officially by the club in the coming days.
