When could Leeds United announce Nico Elvedi as medical details revealed

It's no secret that Nico Elvedi is set to sign for Leeds United.

Daniel Farke has moved quickly to keep his squad depth with changes ongoing at Elland Road.

Pascal Struijk was replaced by Tarik Muharemovic after his move to Brighton, with Sebastiaan Bornauw also on the way out.

The Belgian is set to sign for Hamburg in the Bundesliga after only one year in West Yorkshire.

Elvedi has been mentioned with Leeds for years now, and it appears the perfect time has arrived to make it happen.

The 49ers aren't messing around, either.

Nico Elvedi hurtles towards Leeds transfer

As soon as it became possible, Farke and the 49ers made sure that it would happen for them.

Leeds have agreed to pay an initial £6.8million to sign Elvedi, moving quickly once Bornauw revealed his intentions to quit.

Even with that order, it appears that the Swiss enforcer could be announced first.

According to Florian Plettenberg on X, Elvedi has already started his medical tests after flying across to England.

The Sky Sports Germany reporter has been all over the transfer, also sharing that a three-year contract has been announced.

With Elvedi already likely at Thorp Arch for the tests, the next steps are usually very simple.

What next for Nico Elvedi?

This looks to be moving very quickly towards a late Monday announcement.

Usually, a player completes his medical at Thorp Arch, before driving across to Elland Road in a short trip.

Once there, they will sign the contracts to make the move formal, before completing their media duties.

All that's left then? The official announcement.

The footage usually all comes from the East Stand concourses, with the view from the pitch in those boxes from the upper tier.

Elvedi should be no different, but he will likely meet his new teammates at Thorp Arch first, as they prepare for Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Among those is Noah Okafor, his Switzerland teammate who should help him settle under his old boss quickly.

Then it will be straight into training at Thorp Arch tomorrow, and a spot in the squad at the City Ground to open the Premier League season.
