Leeds have signed midfielder Jordan Stevens from Sky Bet League Two side Forest Green Rovers for an undisclosed fee.
The 17-year-old has completed an initial deal at Elland Road until the summer of 2020, with the club holding an option to extend that by a further year.
Stevens made his Rovers debut against Lincoln in September and featured 14 more times in all competitions, scoring the winner in the 2-1 win at Cheltenham in the Checkatrade Trophy in September.
He will initially go into Leeds' U23 squad and could make his debut in Friday's match with Birmingham City U23s.
