Crewe Alexandra midfielder Luke Murphy has reportedly agreed a three-year contract with Leeds United.
Blackburn Rovers had been strongly linked with a move for the 23-year-old, who impressed in League One last season.
However, according to Sky Sports News, Leeds have stolen a march on their rivals, with the playmaker agreeing a contract with the Championship outfit.
It is believed that Crewe will receive a figure of £1m.
