Leeds United have welcomed their newest member Diogo Monteiro, who left Swiss Super League side Servette FC to join the club.
The 18-year-old has agreed a three-and-a-half year contract at Elland Road and will initially join up with Michael Skubala’s Under-21s squad, Leeds announced on its website.
The Under-21s squad continue to battle for promotion from Premier League 2 Division 2.
Monteiro made his league debut for Servette at the age of 16, becoming the third youngest player to make an appearance in the Swiss Super League. He has played seven times in all competitions for the Maroons, who currently sit third in the league table.
The defender has also made a number of international appearances through various age groups for Portugal, from Under-15 to Under-19 levels, representing the country over 30 times.
