Leeds United are continuing their Premier League revolution with the imminent arrival of Leicester City right-back James Justin.<\/strong><\/p>\n Justin has completed his medical at Thorp Arch<\/a> and looks set to be the Whites\u2019 10th signing of the ongoing transfer window.<\/p>\n Leeds will pay Leicester a package deal worth \u00a310million for Justin<\/a>, including add-ons, as the West Yorkshire outfit further bolster their backline.<\/p>\n Fans in LS11 will undoubtedly be excited to see the Englishman arrive as the Peacocks look to secure their Premier League status this season.<\/p>\n Leeds are close to unveiling Justin as their newest summer signing from Leicester, according to YEP<\/a>.<\/p>\n The news outlet reports on 25 August that Daniel Farke was keen to add another full-back option at Elland Road<\/a> before the end of August, and the 27-year-old is about to fill that requirement.<\/p>\n It\u2019s been claimed that \u00a32m add-ons in the deal are not guaranteed to be met, with an official announcement expected by the close of play in LS11.<\/p>\n The one-cap England international will definitely add much-needed Premier League<\/a> experience to the West Yorkshire outfit\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n Read More:<\/strong> Noah Okafor starts in nine changes \u2013 Leeds predicted XI vs Sheffield Wednesday<\/a><\/p>\n Werder Bremen have been working on signing Isaac Schmidt<\/a> this summer, but his move has so far been blocked as Farke looked for a replacement.<\/p>\n Now that James is about to sign for the Whites, it looks like the Switzerland international\u2019s one-year stint at Elland Road is about to come to an end.<\/p>\n The 25-year-old right-back was rightfully below Jayden Bogle in the pecking order last season, but only managed 71 Championship minutes.<\/p>\n Leeds were fearful of Justin\u2019s transfer falling through<\/a> after he picked up a slight knock at Leicester during their 2-1 loss to Preston North End on 16 August.<\/p>\n It doesn\u2019t seem like the English defender\u2019s knock was serious enough to jeopardise a move to LS11 in the final weeks of the transfer window.<\/p>\n Supporters should expect multiple announcements from Elland Road in the coming hours as Justin<\/a> and Schmidt\u2019s futures look intertwined.<\/p>\n![\"Leeds](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/james-justin-1-1024x683.jpg\")
