Defender Bijol completes Leeds move
- Published
Leeds United have completed the signing of defender Jaka Bijol from Serie A side Udinese.
The 26-year-old joins on a five-year deal for a fee believed to be in the region of £15m and becomes the Whites' second signing of the summer following the arrival of forward Lukas Nmecha on a free transfer.
Bijol made 37 appearances across all competitions during the 2024-25 campaign, scoring twice and providing two assists.
The Slovenia international began his career with Rudar Velenje in his homeland and brings a wealth of experience having had spells in Russia and Germany, before moving to Udinese in 2022.
He made his international debut in 2018 at the age of 19 and has racked up 63 caps so far.
What do you make of the new signing?
And what else do Leeds need to address this summer?
