Report: Talks ongoing as Caleb Ekuban heading for Leeds United exit

Leeds United striker Caleb Ekuban has landed in Turkey to complete his move to Trabzonspor.

The president of the Turkish club has confirmed that talks with Leeds United are on-going to sign the 24-year-old striker and the deal could materialise because he is a “low-cost option”.

“Since the beginning of the transfer season, almost 20 players have been interviewed, one of them is Ekuban,” Agaoglu said.

“Strikers Muhammet Bashir and Ramil Sheidaev left the team, leaving only after Burak Yilmaz and Hugo Rodallega up front. Ekuban is a low-cost player, so there is no definite situation at the moment, but negotiations are continuing.
