Christantus Uche Joins Leeds United in Landmark Deal Ahead of New Season
Leeds, England – June 4, 2025
In a major boost to their promotion ambitions, Leeds United have officially announced the signing of Nigerian midfielder Christantus Uche in a deal that marks one of the club’s most exciting acquisitions in recent years.
The 23-year-old was unveiled today at Elland Road, where he signed a multi-year contract alongside the club’s sporting director. Donning the iconic white and blue kit, Uche posed for photographs after putting pen to paper, signaling a new chapter for both the player and the club.
Uche, previously with La Liga side Getafe, is known for his dynamic box-to-box play, technical ability, and physical presence. Leeds United have been closely monitoring his progress over the past two seasons and moved swiftly to secure his services amid interest from several European clubs.
> “It’s a dream come true to join a club with such history and ambition,” said Uche. “I’m here to give my best, grow with the team, and help Leeds United return to the Premier League where they belong.”
The transfer aligns with the club’s summer strategy of reinforcing key areas in preparation for a competitive campaign. Manager Daniel Farke reportedly played a key role in convincing Uche to make the move, highlighting the player’s fit within his tactical vision.
Fans are already buzzing on social media, expressing excitement over the arrival of the talented Nigerian international.
Leeds United begin their pre-season training later this month, and all eyes will be on Uche as he integrates with the squad.
