Leeds New Star Wilson Reveals Reasons for Declining Other Offers Amid Ampadu Input
Wilson said Leeds’ earlier pursuit and a four-year deal helped seal the move after he scored 11 goals for Fulham last season.
- Leeds United signed winger Harry Wilson on a four-year contract Wednesday, securing the 29-year-old on a free transfer after his deal with Fulham expired.
- After failing to sign Wilson last summer, Leeds succeeded this year as the player cited the club's "initial pursuit, which came prior to all of last season" as influential.
- Wilson scored 11 goals in 41 appearances last season for Fulham, while Wales teammate and Leeds skipper Ethan Ampadu pressured him to join the club this summer.
- "It's really important to be at a club where you feel wanted," Wilson said, reflecting on his five-year tenure at Fulham building relationships with staff and players.
- Manager Daniel Farke now prepares Leeds for the Premier League campaign, with the team opening its season against Nottingham Forest on August 22.
