Manchester United have sold defender Scott Wootton to Leeds for a reported fee of £1 million.
The 21-year-old has signed a three-year contract with the
Championship club after being deemed surplus to requirements by David
Moyes.
Wootton made four first-team appearances for United during their
defensive injury crisis last autumn, facing Newcastle and Chelsea in the
Capital One Cup and Cluj twice in the Champions League.
A graduate of United’s youth system, Wootton had had loan spells at Tranmere, Peterborough and Nottingham Forest.
Leeds manager Brian McDermott said: “I’m delighted to have agreed the
signing of Scott Wootton on a three-year deal. He’s a player who has
played in the Champions League and someone we feel will develop with us
in the coming years.
“I want to say thanks for the owners in doing the deal and bringing another young player to help us go forward.”
Moyes has allowed several other United youngsters to join
Championship clubs with Reece Brown signing for Watford on a free
transfer, Sam Johnstone loaned to Yeovil and Ryan Tunnicliffe borrowed
by Ipswich.
