Georginio Rutter's first words as a Leeds United player as record signing outlines his strengths

Leeds United record signing Georginio Rutter is looking get fans off their seats at Elland Road after making the switch from Hoffenheim.

The striker has signed a five-and-a-half-year deal with the Whites in what is believed to be a club record deal in the region of up to £35m after add-ons.

The French Under-21 international is excited to be in the Premier League with Jesse Marsch's side, and can't wait to get started, with a potential debut against Brentford next weekend. Rutter is inelligible for Wednesday night's FA Cup replay with Cardiff City, but will be introduced to the home crowd.
