Leeds United have officially completed the signing of German forward Lucas Nmecha, marking a significant step in their summer transfer strategy. The striker was pictured alongside manager Daniel Farke, both smiling as they put pen to paper in what the club has hailed as a “major acquisition” ahead of the 2025/26 campaign.
Nmecha, formerly of Manchester City and Wolfsburg, joins the Whites in a deal believed to be structured with performance incentives and long-term commitment. His arrival reunites him with Farke, under whom he previously thrived on loan at Norwich City.
“Lucas brings power, pace, and a real eye for goal — qualities that will massively boost our attack,” said Farke. “He’s the type of player who fits the Leeds DNA — relentless and ambitious.”
Leeds fans have already shown excitement over the move, viewing Nmecha as a forward who can lead their charge for Premier League promotion. The forward is expected to join up with the squad immediately for pre-season preparations at Thorp Arch.
This signing underlines the 49ers-led board’s intent to back Farke in the market and build a squad capable of returning to the top flight.
