BBC is now reporting that Leeds have signed Sean Longstaff: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c9vr40rkxzdo "Newly promoted Leeds United have signed midfielder Sean Longstaff from Newcastle for £12m plus potential add-ons. The 27-year-old, who had one year left on his contract at St James' Park, has signed a four-year deal. The move ends his long association with Newcastle, having come through the ranks at the club. He made 214 senior appearances for the Magpies, but played only 787 minutes for Eddie Howe's side in the Premier League last season - mostly as a substitute. Longstaff also made five appearances in the Carabao Cup last season, but was an unused substitute as Newcastle defeated Liverpool 2-1 in the final to win their domestic trophy in 70 years. Leeds had already agreed personal terms with the English midfielder but had an offer of £10m rejected by Newcastle earlier this week. Longstaff is Leeds' fifth signing this summer following the arrivals of defenders Sebastiaan Bornauw, Jaka Bijol and Gabriel Gudmundsson as well as German forward Lukas Nmecha."
