Leeds United announced their 13th signing of the summer on Thursday, and now the man himself has sent a message to the fans.

Jay-Roy Grot has penned a four-year contract at Elland Road after moving from Dutch side NEC Nijmegen for an undisclosed fee.

The news comes a matter of days after the club said goodbye to Chris Wood, who opted to sign for Premier League club Burnley in what Sky Sports claims was a £15m deal.

Grot is only 19 years of age, but he is expected to gain some game time this season, and he has one particular attribute that he can use to his advantage - height.

Towering a 6ft 4in, the teenager will be an asset for set pieces and being a target man for balls into the box, but the Dutchman also possesses speed and flair.

Afte finalising his move, Grot took to social media platform Instagram to express his joy in signing for Leeds.
