Mason Cotcher, a former forward for Sunderland, has impressed during his trial period with Leeds United and has been handed a contract this month.
Profitably speaking, Leeds’ recent youth investment has been quite advantageous; one could argue that the influence of Crysencio Summerville alone is making the strategy workable.
With an exciting summer looming, head of recruitment Jordan Miles is keeping a careful eye on more young people this season.
Mason Cotcher, a striker for Leeds, is put on trial
Following their summer signings of Josh McDonald and Lewis Pirie, the club has recently attempted to bolster the youth lineup with new attackers.
Mason Cotcher, the former striker for Sunderland, was reportedly placed on trial by the club; this is corroborated by his participation in U18 and U21 matches.
Playing right behind the striker, the teenager scored twice in three U18 Premier League appearances with the Whites during that period, with one of those goals occurring against his old Black Cats.
Following the trial period, Cotcher offered Leeds a contract.
The club has reportedly made a contract offer to the teenage forward, and the agreement is “set” to be finalized, according to The Telegraph.
Leeds would have to pay Sunderland a registration fee if they signed the forward to a permanent contract this month.
