Leeds United are delighted to announce the signing of Dominic Calvert-Lewin who joins the club after departing fellow Premier League side Everton earlier this summer, upon the expiration of his contract.

The England international has put pen to paper on a three-year deal, committing his future at Elland Road until 2028.

The attacker arrives with vast amounts of experience at the top-level having scored 57 goals in 239 Premier League appearances, regularly leading the forward line in the most competitive league in the world.

Our latest summer arrival has also featured in European competition at club level, at the forefront of Everton’s 2016/17 Europa League campaign, making nine appearances.

Calvert-Lewin now returns to familiar surroundings in Yorkshire, after his footballing career began with hometown club Sheffield United. He enjoyed productive loan spells away from Bramall Lane before many sides came calling for his signature, resulting in a move to Merseyside.

He made his top-flight debut in a 2-1 victory over Arsenal at Goodison Park in 2016 and grabbed a first Premier League goal later that term during a 4-0 demolition of Hull City.

The 28-year-old’s most productive season was seen in the 2020/21 campaign as he combined for 26 goal involvements, leading to international recognition with the Three Lions.

After impressing for the national side by finding the net in his first few caps, Calvert-Lewin was then called up by Sir Gareth Southgate for the memorable run to the UEFA Euro 2020 final.

In the younger age groups with England, Calvert-Lewin played a major role in the Under-20s World Cup win in 2017 and scored the winning goal in the final of the competition.

Last season Calvert-Lewin featured 26 times in the Premier League, helping the Toffees to a mid-table finish.

Everyone at Leeds United would like to welcome Dominic to the club, as he becomes the eighth summer signing for Daniel Farke’s side.
