A lot of Leeds United fans have responded to Jean-Kevin Augustin’s post after it was confirmed that he has joined the Whites on a season-long loan with an option to buy.
Leeds have worked on the deal over the weekend, and the Frenchman arrived late last night and underwent his medical this morning before the Whites revealed him just before 12.
Will Augustin be the man to fire the Whites to promotion?
Yes, he can do it
No, might take some time to get to adapt
Leeds had a third bid rejected for Che Adams and rather than going back in for him switched to Augustin, and the 22-year-old was keen to join, and Leeds have got their man.
This has delighted many Whites supporters.

Welcome to the best club in England @33_augustin, your gonna love the crowds at Elland road, it’s louder than Monaco. ???

What do we think?
Augustin, who is valued at £12.6m by Transfermarkt, managed to score 20 goals in 67 appearances for RB Leipzig before he joined AS Monaco on loan and only managed 13 games and scored one goal.
Leeds negotiated a deal with Leipzig to get him to Elland Road, and they now might have the goalscorer that they need to get promotion.
Marcelo Bielsa said in his press conference that he was pleased with the support of the board but Augustin will not be involved against Millwall.
