Largie Ramazani signs for Leeds United — Leedsunited.com 22/8/24


Exciting attacker joins the club.

Leeds United are delighted to announce the permanent signing of Largie Ramazani on a four-year contract from Spanish side UD Almería, for an undisclosed fee, subject to receiving a work permit.

Having spent time within the academy system in both Belgium and England early in his career, Ramazani moved to Spain in the summer of 2020.

He was an instant success whilst at the UD Almería Stadium after scoring in just his third appearance for the club, before becoming a regular in the side. He scored five in total in the 2020/21 campaign.

The 2021/22 season saw the forward, who can operate anywhere across the front line, play a pivotal part in promotion for La Unión by scoring nine goals, as they won the Segunda Division and went up to La Liga as champions.

His debut year in the top-flight of Spanish football started impressively, scoring against both Real Madrid and Sevilla inside the opening three games of the season.

Those performances on the pitch were rewarded with a call-up to the Belgium Under-21 side, where Ramazani showcased his talent once more, by scoring in his first start for his country. He has since gone on to represent them eight times at Under-21 level, scoring three goals.

Last season, the now 23-year-old chipped in with eight goal contributions for Los Rojiblancos and he has begun this campaign in fine form too, after finding the back of the net in the opening match of the season.

Ramazani now arrives at Elland Road after making over 100 appearances for Almería across both La Liga and the Segunda Division, adding firepower along with experience to Daniel Farke’s side.

Everyone at Leeds United would like to welcome Largie to Elland Road. He becomes the club’s fifth summer arrival and will wear the number 17 shirt.
