Leeds United have signed Scotland youth international goalkeeper Alan Martin from Motherwell.

The cash-strapped League One side have paid an undisclosed fee for the 18-year-old shot-stopper, who has agreed a two-year contract at Elland Road.

The Scotland Under-19 international will provide competition for regular number one Casper Ankergren.

"I'm glad it's all gone through now," Martin told the club's official website.

"I'm on top of the world to be signing for a club like Leeds. The facilities here are top-class and I'm looking forward to working with the manager and coaching staff and becoming a better player."
