Leeds United should announce the signing of Helder Costa from Wolverhampton Wanderers soon.

According to Wolves Bite, Leeds United have paid £2 million to take Helder Costa on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Leeds are set to announce the signing of Costa imminently, with the winger about to join up with Marcelo Bielsa’s side.

Leeds spent £4 million in total on loans last season, as reported by the Yorkshire Evening Post, but they have spent half of that on one player this term.

It shows a commitment to the tactic of bringing in quality players from the Premier League on a temporary basis.

Leeds have also inserted a clause which allows them to sign Costa for a set price from Wolves at the end of the season.

Leeds are likely to have to earn promotion to the Premier League to be able to activate this clause.

Leeds fell just short of promotion last term, but Costa’s signing is their most exciting transfer move of the summer so far.

The Portuguese international ripped apart the Championship last time he played in the division with Wolves and if he could make a similar impact at Elland Road he will quickly become a fans’ favourite.
