Leeds United are “pushing to sign” Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff, with personal terms already agreed, according to The Athletic’s David Ornstein.

The Whites have been linked with the 27-year-old all summer and have now had a bid worth £12m including add-ons for the midfielder accepted. A report in The Athletic last night claimed it was United's third proposal for Longstaff and personal terms are already in place.
