English Premier League side Leeds United have announced the signing of Northern Ireland Under 17 international Charlie Allen.

The 16 year old joins The Whites from NIFL Premiership side Linfield for an undisclosed fee on a three year deal which will run until summer 2023.

Allen holds the record for Linfield’s youngest debutant when he made his first senior appearance at the age of 15 in a 1-1 draw with Coleraine last year.
