Leeds United are closing in on another signing.
Leeds United are reported to be close to signing Ouasim Buoy, according to Dutch website De Stentor.
Buoy has been under contract with Juventus since 2012 but has barely featured for the Italian giants.
He has spent the past two seasons on loan in Holland with PEC Zwolle.

It is claimed Buoy is extending his current deal with Juventus and will sign on loan at Leeds.
Buoy, 24, began his career in midfield but has switched to play at centre-back.

He has previously had loan spells with Brescia, Hamburg, Panathaniakos and Palermo.
Leeds currently only have two centre-back options available for the start of the season, Liam Cooper and loanee Matthew Pennington, with star man Pontus Jansson suspended.
The club have had a busy transfer window but defence remains a position they need to address.
Bouy has previously represented Holland at under-19 level.
