Leeds United have confirmed the signing of German international Lukas Nmecha on a free transfer from Bundesliga side Wolfsburg. The 26-year-old striker has put pen to paper on a two-year deal, becoming the club’s first major acquisition of the summer window.
The deal, effective from July 1st, marks a significant statement of intent as Leeds prepare for life back in the Premier League. Nmecha, a versatile forward known for his strength, pace, and intelligent movement, adds valuable experience to Daniel Farke’s attacking options.
Having come through the ranks at Manchester City before stints in the Bundesliga and with the German national team, Nmecha brings top-level pedigree and is expected to challenge for a starting spot immediately.
“It’s an exciting move for me,” said Nmecha. “Leeds is a massive club with passionate fans, and I’m here to help the team make an impact in the Premier League again.”
Sources close to Elland Road suggest Leeds beat competition from clubs across Europe to secure the striker’s signature, emphasizing the trust placed in manager Farke’s project and the club’s Premier League ambition.
With Nmecha through the door, the Whites are now accelerating talks for defensive reinforcement, including a deal for Jaka Bijol of Udinese.
