DONE DEAL: Ethan Ampadu mocks Chelsea and their failures as he sound to be relieved for leaving Chelsea for Leeds

Leeds United have signed Chelsea defender Ethan Ampadu in a permanent deal.

The Wales international joins Leeds for a £7m fee and has penned a four-year contract.

“I think as a club, the history doesn’t have to be sold,” Ampadu told LUTV.

“Everyone knows how big of a club Leeds United is. Obviously we are now in the position we are, but we all want more.

“When I spoke with the boss [Daniel Farke], as soon as I got off the phone call I knew what I wanted, he really impressed me.

“He told me what he liked about me and where he thinks I can improve as a player.

“That all helped me choose Leeds United.”

Ampadu also played with Leeds midfielder Tyler Adams at RB Leipzig.

Ampadu said: “Tyler and I got on well [at RB Leipzig].

“When the interest was there, I gave him a message and we spoke a little bit. He couldn’t speak highly enough about the club. He’s a good friend and we have always stayed in touch.

“I have also seen a lot of the positive messages that I have received, so thank you to everyone.

“I am very excited this has happened and for the project ahead.”
