Leeds have announced the signing of striker Chris Wood from Leicester for an undisclosed fee.

The 23-year-old New Zealand international has penned a four-year deal to become the Whites' fourth summer arrival.

"I think he's another important piece in the jigsaw," said head coach Uwe Rosler. "We were looking for a number nine type - like Chris Wood is.

"He's physical, strong and experienced in this league. He has potential to develop and has his best years in front of him.

"It's exciting. He already has a proven goalscoring record and I think there are many goals to come. We think that he is the right player."

Wood scored 20 goals in 62 appearances for the Foxes after arriving at the club from West Brom in 2013. He spent the second half of last season on loan at Leeds' Sky Bet Championship rivals Ipswich.
