Leeds have completed the signing of 23-year-old Caleb Ekuban for an undisclosed fee.

The striker joins the club from Italian Serie A outfit Chievo and has signed a four-year contract.

A product of Chievo's youth system, Ekuban spent last season on loan with FK Partizani where he featured in Champions League and Europa League qualifying rounds.

He becomes the latest in a number of close-season signings to be made under new boss Thomas Christiansen, who on Friday night said he expected more signings "in the next few days" following the arrival of former Newcastle United midfielder Vurnon Anita.

The signing comes just a day after the club agreed a deal with Huesca for Spain youth international Samuel Saiz.
