Leeds United’s Victor Orta signed a lot of players last week.
Barry Douglas has told LUTV that Helder Costa is a ‘great acquisition’ for Leeds United.
The Wolves winger signed for Leeds on a season-long loan this week.
Douglas is very familiar with the Portuguese winger’s strengths after both helped Wanderers to Premier League promotion a little over a year ago.
And the Scot, a £3 million signing last summer [Sky Sports], says that the Elland Road club have done a great bit of business.
He told LUTV: “Helder’s a great acquisition for the club. It’s given everyone a big boost because he has so much quality.
“We’ll hopefully see that this season. He’s a player who can create things from nothing and unlock defences so we’ll see that this year.”
Wolves revealed that Leeds will sign him on a permanent basis next summer, with The Daily Mail reporting that the fee will be £15 million.
Costa is the latest of four loan signings made by Director of Football Victor Orta last week – including Jack Harrison, Ben White, and Jack Clarke was re-signed on loan.
But Costa is no doubt the most exciting addition so far but with great expectancy comes great responsibility, especially when your loan club may be paying £15 million for you in a year.
