The Belgium-born Morocco international is an attacking midfielder whose profile has met with Leeds approval as they search for difference-making quality in their final significant signings of the transfer window.

Still just 21, El Khannouss has played the vast majority of his career thus far in a central attacking role but has featured occasionally on the left.

He joined Belgian side Genk in 2019 and made nearly 100 appearances, scoring four goals and picking up 14 assists before a £21m move to Leicester City in August of last year.
