Leeds United have announced the signing of Manchester City youngster Darko Gyabi for an undisclosed fee. The midfielder makes the move from the Etihad Stadium to Elland Road after signing a four-year deal that secures his future until the summer of 2026.
Gyabi was one of the most highly rated youngsters in the City academy and Leeds have high hopes for him as he chases his first senior appearance. The 18-year-old played a role for the club’s under-23s last year, making 10 appearances and scoring one goal as the club eased to the Premier League 2 title.
He won the title with Man City Under-18s the previous season, too. Gyabi is from London and he was on Millwall’s books before he agreed to make the move north to sign for City at the age of just 14 for a reported fee of around £300,000.
