Joel Piroe is set to undergo a medical at Leeds United ahead of his move from Swansea City.
That is according to Fabrizio Romano, who reports a deal has now been agreed between the two clubs with it expected to be completed by the end of the week.
As per the Daily Mail, Leeds have reached an agreement on a £12 million deal with Swansea for the 24-year-old.
Romano has now reiterated that claim and gone one step further, with Piroe set to make the trip to West Yorkshire to complete a medical ahead of his proposed move.
It has not yet been confirmed as to whether Piroe has agreed personal terms with the Whites, but the fact he is set for a medical would indicate they won’t be a problem.
Piroe set to undergo Leeds medical
Leeds have been in the market throughout the summer for a new number nine and Piroe is among the names to have been linked continously.
The Whites have faced competition from Southampton who as per Team Talk, were ready to launch an offer today in an attempt to gazump Daniel Farke’s side.
However, it appears as though Leeds have moved quickly in order to get a deal done ahead of the Saints in what is a major coup.
Piroe has scored 41 goals across the last two seasons in the Championship since joining Swansea from PSV in 2021, though is yet to open his account in the league term
This would be a real statement of intent from San Francisco 49ers Enterprises at long last with eight days of the window remaining.
