Discussing his move yesterday, former England goalkeeper Green said: “It’s exciting to be here.
“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 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."
