Calvert-Lewin Re-Signs with Leeds, Dashing Man Utd Hopes
30 Oct
Summary
- Dominic Calvert-Lewin is reportedly set to sign a new contract.
- Manchester United was interested in signing the striker in January.
- The striker has scored 20 goals in 49 appearances for Leeds.
Leeds United is poised to secure a new contract for striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The 29-year-old forward, who arrived at Elland Road on a free transfer from Everton, has netted 20 goals in 49 appearances for the Whites. His current contract was scheduled to run until 2028.
This development comes as a setback for Manchester United, who were reportedly seeking to sign a forward during the January transfer window. With Benjamin Sesko sidelined due to a shin injury, Manchester United had been linked with Calvert-Lewin as a potential January target.
Calvert-Lewin has recently been recalled to the England squad, earning his 14th cap on October 6th in a victory. Although he missed out on World Cup selection, he has featured in recent Nations League matches.
