“I am delighted to come back here and I hope to help the team to move up the table,” Becchio said.

“I started training with the team two weeks ago and I feel confident. I know the group and I know the manager so I can’t wait to play the first game now.”

Becchio was a firm favourite at Elland Road, netting 75 goals in 190 league appearances for Leeds.
