Leeds United are on the brink of completing one of their most anticipated signings in recent years, with Harry Wilson set to join the club on a free transfer from Fulham. After months of speculation—and a failed attempt last summer—the Whites have finally moved decisively to land the Welsh international.
Deal Agreed: Leeds Win the Race
Leeds have reached a full agreement with Wilson, who is expected to sign a long-term contract once his Fulham deal expires at the end of June 2026. The move, which is subject to a medical and final formalities, represents a major coup for the Yorkshire club, who beat competition from Aston Villa, Everton and interest from abroad.
Crucially, the transfer comes without a fee, allowing Leeds to secure a proven Premier League performer in his prime. The club’s willingness to offer a lucrative contract and a central role in Daniel Farke’s plans appears to have been the deciding factor.
There is a sense of unfinished business around the deal. Leeds came within hours of signing Wilson on deadline day in 2025, only for Fulham to pull out at the last minute. Now, nearly a year later, the move is finally coming to life.
A Statement Signing for Daniel Farke
Wilson is expected to become Leeds United’s first major signing of the summer—and one that sends a clear message about the club’s ambitions.
After finishing a solid campaign in the Premier League, Leeds are looking to build on their progress by adding proven quality in the final third. Wilson fits that brief perfectly. His ability to both score and create goals addresses a key area of need, particularly in supporting the club’s attacking options.
Comfortable on either flank but most dangerous cutting in from the right, Wilson offers versatility, creativity and a goal threat that Leeds have sometimes lacked.
A Career-Best Season at Fulham
The timing of the move reflects Wilson’s strong form. The 2025/26 season proved to be the most productive of his career to date.
Across all competitions, he delivered 11 goals and 8 assists in 41 appearances, earning widespread praise and even being named Fulham’s Player of the Season.
