Dawson scored seven goals in 12 appearances for United’s Under-21s and he also made his international bow, with his debut for Wales Under-21s in January.

The youngster was already under contract at Leeds until 2015 but has accepted a new three year deal at Elland Road.

Dawson is recovering from a recent shoulder operation but will be fit in time to start pre-season training.
