Cuisance denies failing Leeds medical at Marseille unveiling


 The 21-year-old looked set to join Marcelo Bielsa at Elland Road before his transfer from Bayern collapsed at the last minute

New Marseille signing Michael Cuisance has denied reports that problems with his medical led to a move to Leeds United falling through. 


Cuisance had looked set for Elland Road after Leeds struck a deal worth £18 million (€20m/$23m) with Bayern Munich, which included a buyback clause for the Bavarian giants. 


But the deal collapsed following the 21-year-old's arrival in England last week, despite agreeing a contract with the Premier League newcomers that would have seen him sign until 2025, and he subsequently agreed a switch to Ligue 1 with Marseille on a one-year loan move.
