Leeds United have signed goalkeeper Michael Zetterer from Eintracht Frankfurt on a three-year deal after Lucas Perri joined Serie A side Torino on a season-long loan.

Zetterer, 31, played the majority of Frankfurt's matches in 2025-26 after injury to their first-choice keeper Kaua Santos, and moves to Elland Road as back-up to James Trafford.

Joining for an undisclosed fee, he becomes the Whites' fifth signing of the transfer window after the arrivals of Trafford, midfielder Harry Wilson and defenders Tarik Muharemovic and Nico Elvedi.

"I feel very happy to be here now," Zetterer said. "Leeds showed me everything. It was good conversations with everybody, so I'm very happy."

Perri, 28, made 16 appearances in the Premier League last season after joining Leeds last summer.

The loan deal with Torino includes an option to buy.
