Man United's Borthwick-Jackson turns down Ajax to join Leeds - sources

Manchester United defender Cameron Borthwick-Jackson rejected interest from Ajax before agreeing a loan move to Leeds United, sources have told ESPN FC.

The left-back is expected to be confirmed as a Leeds player next week after agreeing a deal until the end of the season and could make his debut against Port Vale at Elland Road in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.

Ajax were keen to sign Borthwick-Jackson this summer and held initial discussions with his representatives.

However, after an unsuccessful move to Wolves last season, the 20-year-old decided his interests would be better served playing regular football in the Championship.
