Teenage midfielder joins Leeds United on trial

GAIS midfielder Nuhu Jatta will spend this week on trial with Leeds United ahead of a potential move to the Championship club.

The 16-year-old made his senior debut for GAIS, who operate in the Swedish second tier, earlier this year and has since made four first-team appearances for the club.

A statement on the Swedish side's official website revealed that Jatta would train alongside the Leeds youth squad this week after a request from the Championship outfit was granted.

The teenager, who also spent time with Serie A club SPAL earlier this year, will remain with the Whites until Sunday, according to the statement from GAIS.

Marcelo Bielsa's side will be looking to return to winning ways in the Championship following last weekend's draw with Cardiff City when they travel to Fulham on Saturday afternoon.

As it stands, Leeds are second in the Championship table behind West Bromwich Albion with 47 points to show from their 22 fixtures.
