Newcastle United considered bringing former Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin to the St James’ Park club this summer but they decided he was too injury prone, according to The Guardian.

Leeds United have reached an agreement to sign free agent Dominic Calvert-Lewin, the PA news agency understands.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has agreed to join newly-promoted Leeds United after leaving Everton at the end of his contract. The England international left the Toffees at the end of last season after nine years at the club.
