Leeds United have signed England international goalkeeper Robert Green on a one-year deal.
The 36-year-old was a free agent following his departure from Championship rivals Queens Park Rangers earlier this summer.
Green becomes Leeds' fourth new addition of the summer following the arrivals of Marcus Antonsson, Kyle Bartley and Hadi Sacko.
"It's exciting to be here," Green told leedsunited.com. "This is one of those opportunities where the first phone call asking if you want to come and play for Leeds is a very quick one. It was a 'yes' straightaway.
"I'm thrilled to be here. I've spoken to the manager and I know what he's got in store and what he's planning.
"What he said really resonated with me and re-affirmed my feelings towards this opportunity.
"After a long wait over the summer, the last few days have happened very quickly and now I'm ready to go. I can't wait to get going.
"I'll join the squad as one of the older members of the group and the role I'll have to play with my experience really appeals to me.
"I'm here for however the manager needs me. He's got a young team of players, who, he says with the right guidance, will really flourish."
