'I got a feeling they really wanted me' - Longstaff on Leeds move

Sean Longstaff says his new club Leeds is the "perfect place" for him after departing his boyhood club Newcastle.

Longstaff has agreed a four-year deal after signing for £12m plus potential add-ons. It ends an 18-year association with the Magpies, having come through the ranks at the club.

"I think it is just really exciting to get going It seems like a really good group," Longstaff told LUTV. "I have heard great things.

"I think there is something to be said for a team that wants you and a club that really wants you. I think from the first time I spoke to Leeds, I got a feeling that they really wanted me.

"It fills you full of confidence and it just makes you want to repay those people. It is a massive, massive football club similar to Newcastle in a lot of ways.

"It was going to take a lot for us to leave Newcastle to be honest. I wasn't just going to leave to go anywhere so it had to be the right place for me and my family and I think this is a perfect place.

"I got to watch pretty much all the games and saw a team that was really exciting to watch, athletic, really good on the ball.

"Every time I came to play at Leeds, the atmosphere was amazing. It was always bouncing and a really tough place to play.

"I am just looking forward to having that on my side rather than having to play against them."
