Leeds United have completed the signing of Cameron Borthwick-Jackson on a season-long loan from Manchester United.

The 20-year-old left-back, who has figured for the Red Devils in the Premier League and the Champions League, had a difficult time on loan at Wolverhampton Wanderers last season.

He played just six Championship games for Wolves before being returned to United but he is looking to get back on track at Elland Road.


Borthwick-Jackson is well regarded by coaches at Old Trafford but needs more competitive games to aid his development.

He made 14 appearances under Louis Van Gaal in his breakthrough season.

New Leeds boss Thomas Christiansen believes he can bring balance to his side after the departure of left-back Charlie Taylor to Burnley.

Club owner Andrea Radrizzani has told head coach Christiansen that he must secure a top-six finish in his first campaign.
