Fabrizio Romano has reported on Twitter that Leeds United are on the verge of bringing Brenden Aaronson from RB Salzburg to Elland Road.
The well-known and well-resected journalist has claimed that Leeds have reached a full agreement with Salzburg over the transfer of Aaronson in the summer transfer window.
The Premier League club will pay £28 million as transfer fee for the USA international attacking midfielder.
The 21-year-old has already personal terms with Leeds, according to Romano.
Leeds United to sign Brenden Aaronson from RB Salzburg
Good business
In our opinion, Leeds United wrapping up a deal to sign RB Salzburg attacking midfielder Brenden Aaronson now is very good business indeed.
The Athletic have reported that Leeds were keen on signing the American youngster in the January transfer window.
It did not work out at the time.
However, it seems that Leeds are now finally set to sign the youngster.
Now, of course, that Leeds could survive in the Premier League on the final day of the season helped.
The USA international playmaker gave two assists in eight Champions League games for Salzburg this season.
Aaronson scored four goals and gave five assists in the Austrian Bundesliga this campaign.
