DONE DEAL: Leeds sign Juventus midfielder McKennie

Leeds United have completed the signing of Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie on loan until the end of the season.

The 24-year-old arrives at Elland Road on a deal that will allow the Premier League club to buy him in the summer.

McKennie has made 16 Serie A appearances for Juventus this season, scoring one goal and assisting another.

The USA international is the club's third signing in the January transfer window following the arrivals of Max Wober and Georginio Rutter.

McKennie had attracted interest from other English top-flight teams, but opted for Leeds where compatriots Tyler Adams and Brenden Aaronson already play, and could make his debut in Sunday's Premier League trip to Nottingham Forest.
