Who is Leeds United new boy Nmecha?

- Published
Daniel Farke has made his first move in the summer transfer window, deciding to sign Wolfsburg's Lukas Nmecha to bolster his attacking options for the club's return to the Premier League - but who is their new forward?
Nmecha came through Manchester City's academy, making his Premier League debut in April 2018 under Pep Guardiola, before being loaned out to Preston North End, Wolfsburg, Middlesbrough and Anderlecht to gain more experience.
After 14 years on City's books, the attacker re-joined Wolfsburg on a permanent deal in July 2021, having got a taste for the club during his previous loan spell.
The 26-year-old has since spent four years playing in the Bundesliga, making 73 appearances, scoring 19 goals and registering four assists.
Nmecha is also a full German international and has represented his country seven times at senior level.
The forward should also add versatility to Leeds United's forward line, with his ability to play as a centre-forward and as a winger.
He will officially arrive at Elland Road when his current contract expires on 1 July.
