18-year-old centre-back signs from NPFL champions Remo Stars on a deal until 2027.
Leeds United have announced the signing of Nigerian defender Leonard Ngenge, according to Sportblits.com.
The 18-year-old centre-back joins the Whites from Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) champions Remo Stars, signing a contract that runs until the end of the 2026/27 season.
Ngenge made the move to Remo Stars from Ikorodu City at the start of the current season, making seven appearances across all competitions before securing the switch to England.
The youngster has also been part of Nigeria’s squad for the 2024 African Nations Championship, co-hosted by Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, making two appearances for the home-based Super Eagles during the tournament.
Leeds United see Ngenge as a promising defensive talent, capable of bolstering their backline while developing into a long-term prospect for both club and country.
