Catania striker Souleymane Doukara has joined the club on loan for the 2014/15 season, with a view to a permanent deal at the end of the campaign.

The France born Senegalese forward spent last season on loan at Juve Stabia in Serie B making 20 appearances, scoring six goals in the process.

Doukara, who can also operate as a winger, has experience in Italy’s top league with his parent club which came during the 2012/13 season.

The 22-year-old striker is United’s fourth new arrival of the summer and head coach David Hockaday said: “I’d like to welcome Souleymane to Leeds United.

“He is a big, powerful and fast player with a hunger to succeed. He is exactly what we need at the club.”
