Leonard Ngenge agrees pre-contract with Leeds United after updates

Posted : 02 September 2024

Leonard Ngenge has secured a pre-contract agreement to join Leeds United, effective in two years, according to Alan Nixon.


In a recent update on his Patreon page, The Sun journalist revealed that Leeds United is keen on signing the Nigerian left-back from Ikorodu City following a successful trial. The deal reflects the club's interest in bringing Ngenge on board.

 


Due to FIFA regulations regarding young players, the 16-year-old Ngenge cannot officially sign a professional contract until he turns 18. Consequently, he will not be able to join Leeds United until then.


While two years may seem like a long wait in football, Leeds United has faced challenges in solidifying their left-back position. Junior Firpo has been the primary choice since replacing Sam Byram due to injury, but Firpo's contract is set to expire at the end of the season.


Although Firpo has shown strong form early in the season, his future at the club may be uncertain if Leeds fails to achieve promotion. Isaac Schmidt's recent arrival from Swiss side St. Gallen provides an alternative option, though Schmidt is right-footed and may be better suited for the opposite flank.


As the situation evolves over the next two years, Leeds United's strategy could change, including potential opportunities for promotion that might affect the team's plans. Despite the wait, the club's willingness to sign Ngenge indicates they believe in his potential.


Ngenge's future move to Elland Road could prove to be a valuable addition, and the club's patience in securing his signature reflects their confidence in his capabilities.
