Former Leeds United forgotten man Jean-Kévin Augustin makes Swiss move

Former Leeds United loanee Jean-Kévin Augustin has joined Swiss side Basel following a dismal spell at Ligue 1 side Nantes. Augustin played just three times during his time at Elland Road after joining the Whites in January 2020.

The French striker, who was on loan from RB Leipzig, failed to score in any of his three outings, before returning Leipzig. He joined Nantes in October 2020 but also failed to find the back of the net during his two seasons with the Ligue 1 side.

Augustin played in just a handful of games for Nantes last season with Long Covid said to have impacted the forward badly. And now the former Leeds loanee has moved to Switzerland to join Basel in an attempt to resurrect his career.
