Leeds United are close to finalising a deal for Hoffenheim forward Georgino Rutter, 90min understands.

Rutter joined Hoffenheim in 2021 for £500,000 from Rennes, and they are set to make a huge profit with Leeds preparing to pay around £30m to get the deal done.
Sources have confirmed that Rutter’s personal terms are all but agreed, and Hoffenheim did not risk him in their winter break friendly with Wolfsburg this weekend.
