Leeds United flop’s agent confirms permanent summer transfer will be made

Graziano Battistini – the agent of Leeds United’s loaned out striker Caleb Ekuban – has told Italian news outlet Tuttomercatoweb that Ekuban will be making a permanent move to Turkish side Trabzonspor at the end of the season.

Caleb Ekuban’s loan move from Leeds United to Trabzonspor will be made permanent at the end of the season, agent Graziano Battistini has said.

Ekuban has become a fan favourite over at Turkish Super Lig side Trabzonspor, netting eight goals and providing three assists across all competitions over the course of the season. He has found himself deployed on the right-wing frequently since the turn of the New Year and he has been thoroughly enjoying himself in his time with the club.

So much so, that he has been open about being keen on a permanent move in the summer, saying earlier this year that joining Trabzonspor was one of the best decisions of his life.

Now, his agent has revealed that he is set to have his wishes granted, stating that Trabzonspor will trigger an option to buy Ekuban at the end of his loan deal.

“He is doing very well at Trabzonspor, he has a great chance of being able to play the African Cup, he has an important potential and he is demonstrating it. The Trabzonspor will buy it from Leeds, he is a footballer ready for big stages. His moment is coming.”

His agent certainly seems to have confidence in the striker’s ability and potential, but that was not shown during his short spell with Leeds. Ekuban bagged just two goals in 21 appearances for the club last season before being moved on upon the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa.
