Leeds United and Lille strike full agreement over Gabriel Gudmundsson | OneFootball

Lille left-back Gabriel Gudmundsson (26) is on the verge of completing a move to Leeds United, with a full agreement now in place between the two clubs for a transfer worth €12m, as reported by Foot Mercato.

Gudmundsson joined LOSC from FC Groningen in the summer of 2021 and gradually established himself as a valuable squad player thanks to his pace, work-rate, and tactical flexibility. Last season, the Sweden international enjoyed his most consistent campaign in France to date, making 20 starts in Ligue 1 and featuring regularly in the UEFA Champions League under then-coach Paulo Fonseca and later Bruno Génésio.Used frequently in a more advanced role on the left flank by Génésio, Gudmundsson’s versatility is a desired feature for the newly promoted Premier League side who was brought to Lille initially for €6m, doubling in value since his move to France.
