After 4 free transfers, Leeds have opened their wallets and paid some cash for centre back Neill Collins. The defender spent the back end of last season on loan at Leeds, and manager Simon Grayason has moved to tie up a deal for the former wolves and Preston defender.
With Paddy Kisnorbo not expected back for a few months, the centre of defence did seem a bit lightweight, so the gap is now plugged.
There is still expected to be more deals done before the start of the season, with a midfielder and striker the main targets. Grayson was hoping to tie up two players this week before the clubs pre season tour, but whether another one gets done in the next 48 hours is anyone's guess.
Collins has signed a 3 year deal with the fee undisclosed.
