Leeds and Nice have agreed a loan deal for Melvin Bard. He's a 25-year-old left-back, who will compete with Gabriel Gudmundsson and adds depth in defence.
#lufc will pay €1m for loan and have the option to make it permanent for €5m. Follows @ftresarrieunytimes.com/athletic/75549…
Looks like Bard is coming in.. solid backup for LB and can cover LCB if needed so all good..
Waiting to see if we can get a winger done to allow Gnonto to leave..
Finger crossed for a nice deadline day #LUFC
