Whtes closing in on deal for Lille's Swedish left-back Gudmundsson

Striker Lukas Nmecha plus defenders Jaka Bijol and Sebastiaan Bornauw have already been recruited to Elland Road ahead of the club's Premier League return and the Whites are now poised to sign a new left-back.

The Whites are in need of a new first choice player in the position following Junior Firpo's summer departure and the YEP can reveal that the club are now close to a deal with Lille for Sweden international left-back Gabriel Gudmundsson.

The YEP believes that the 26-year-old defender arrived in England yesterday for further talks.

Gudmundsson has a year remaining on his contract at Ligue 1 side Lille and so anticipated that there would be rumours over his future this summer.
