Leeds are about to complete a deal to sign Feyenoord star Luis Sinisterra, according to reports.
César Luis Merlo says a deal has been agreed between Leeds and Feyenoord worth around £21.4million plus just over £4million in add-ons.
The winger will be a Leeds player this coming season, according to the report, with a medical due in the coming hours ahead of a five-year deal being signed.
Sinisterra scored 18 and assisted 11 across all competitions last season, with Feyenoord putting together a fine run in the Conference League.

Leeds are also said to be chasing a deal for RB Salzburg star Mohamed Camara this summer.
The Whites need more depth in their midfield following the departure of Phillips, and according to the Daily Express, they are pushing to sign Camara, holding conversations with the player’s representatives.
The report claims Camara’s head has been turned by those reports, with the midfielder ready to make the move to the Premier League.
Of course, that is only half the battle for Leeds, who would need to agree a deal with Salzburg, first and foremost.
