Armando Muharemovic has completed a permanent transfer from Sassuolo to Premier League side Leeds United, the club confirmed on Tuesday evening. The move brings an end to the striker’s two-year spell in Serie A, where he rediscovered his form after a challenging period in his career. Financial details of the transfer were not disclosed by either club.
Muharemovic joined Sassuolo in 2021, and quickly became a key figure under manager Fabio Grosso. He expressed his gratitude to the club, staff, and supporters in a heartfelt message posted on his Instagram account, highlighting their support during a difficult time in his career. He thanked director Giovanni Carnevali, sporting director Francesco Palmieri, and the Squinzi family for their faith in him.
The forward’s time at Sassuolo saw him contribute consistently in attack, becoming a reliable option for goals and providing a strong presence upfront. While specific statistics were not immediately available, his impact was acknowledged by Grosso, who gave him an opportunity to rebuild his confidence. He will now look to replicate that success in the more demanding environment of the Premier League.
Leeds United will be hoping Muharemovic can add firepower to their squad as they prepare for the upcoming season. The club has been active in the transfer market this summer, seeking to strengthen their attacking options following a difficult campaign last year. Muharemovic’s arrival provides another option for manager to choose from, increasing competition for places in the forward line. His ability to hold up play and finish chances could prove valuable for the Whites.
