What must happen for Weston McKennie's Leeds United move to be made permanent

One of the highlights of the transfer window for Leeds United will be securing a loan deal for Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie. The USA international has been vocal about how excited he is to be playing for the Whites and brings another option into manager Jesse Marsch's dressing room.

McKennie is the third American addition to the squad this season after 'partner-in-crime' Tyler Adams and World Cup teammate Brenden Aaronson arrived in the summer, and highlights further US involvement in the club, with the 24-year-old pictured next to Adams as he held up his shirt for the press.

The midfielder seems to be comfortable at his new club but he can't get his feet under the table because the deal isn't a permanent one. It is indeed just a loan move, although that could quickly change.
