Gabriel Gudmundsson joins Leeds United in the Premier League. The 26-year-old left-back leaves OSC Lille and joins the newly promoted club in the English top league. The Swedish national player receives a contract until 2029.

According to the information, a total agreement has been reached between LOSC Lille and Leeds for a transfer valued at 12 million euros. Gabriel Gudmundsson, a versatile left-back, is set to leave Lille. He joined Lille in 2021 from Groningen and has completed his most accomplished season with the club, marking a significant sporting loss for Lille but a good sale as he was bought for 6 million euros.

Leeds United, having recently secured promotion, view Gudmundsson as an ideal addition to bolster their defense. The club is keen on signing Gudmundsson and needs to act swiftly to secure the deal amidst competition from other clubs. Gabriel Gudmundsson, Lille's adaptable left-back, has caught the attention of several Premier League teams, particularly Leeds United and Everton, along with two unnamed English top-flight teams and clubs from the Bundesliga. With his contract set to expire in June 2026, Lille might consider offers as low as £8m, presenting him as a cost-effective option. Leeds is looking for a replacement for Junior Firpo, who is anticipated to re-join Real Betis on a free transfer. Gudmundsson is reportedly open to a move to the Premier League, which increases his attractiveness. However, interest from Bundesliga clubs could present a challenge, as his skills are well-suited to their high-pressing systems.
