Report: RB Leipzig have pipped Leeds United to Dinamo Zagreb centre-back Josko Gvardiol

According to The Mirror’s David Anderson, Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig have pipped Leeds United to the signature of Dinamo Zagreb centre-back Josko Gvardiol. The Elland Road side had a £19.6 million bid accepted by the Croatian outfit, but the teenager wasn’t keen on moving to Yorkshire. Gvardiol has rejected Leeds for Leipzig because he feels it is a better move for his career as he looks to continue his development. The Whites offered better personal terms compared to the Germans, but the 18-year-old rejected their offer and is now set to join Julian Nagelsmann’s side.
