Alfie Hughes has left Manchester United to join Leeds United.
Ian Harte has taken to Twitter to express his delight at Alfie Hughes joining Leeds United after leaving Manchester United.
Hughes has revealed on Instagram that he has turned down the chance of a scholarship deal at Premier League giants United to move to Championship club Leeds.
The 16-year-old midfielder will head into the Leeds Under-18 side, and club legend Harte has welcomed him to Elland Road.
Busy summer
While Hughes is unlikely to get too many chances for the Leeds first team in the coming years, the Whites have been quite busy in the summer transfer window signing players for the senior side to launch a challenge for the Championship top two next season.
Jack Harrison has returned to Leeds on a season-long loan deal from Manchester City, while Ben White has joined on loan from Brighton and Hove Albion.
Jack Clarke will stay at the West Yorkshire outfit for next season, having completed a permanent contract with Tottenham Hotspur, while Helder Costa has signed from Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan.
