Three weeks after Ilia Gruev joined Ethan Ampadu on the treatment table, Leeds finally confirmed a new signing in Josuha Guilavogui. The 34-year-old has arrived on a contract until the end of the season, but how did Leeds get here?

Leeds United visit Ashton Gate this weekend where hosts Bristol City have proved difficult to beat with Daniel Farke making at least one change to the side which defeated Watford on Tuesday.

Led by the impressive Pascal Struijk as captain, six clean sheets in the past 10 games have provided an impressive amount of concrete under the dance floor upon which the flair players are strutting their stuff - and strut it they have despite a lack of consistency in selection in the exciting final third.

Pennant isn’t alone in his predictions, with Paul Merson also airing a similar take on the Whites’ situation. The Sky Sports pundit has publicly backed Leeds to secure promotion at the end of the campaign and believes that Farke’s previous experience in this scenario is ‘priceless’.

Experienced midfielder Josuha Guilavogui has revealed he snubbed multiple offers from elsewhere to join Leeds United. The former France international has joined the Whites on a deal until the end of the 2024/25 season.
