The teenager arrives with impressive pedigree having been on the books of Leeds since 2021, signing a new contract last year. During that time, Ombang has been capped by England at under-17 level and gained senior experience during stints at Ossett United and Farsley Celtic.

The 19-year-old is eligible for this weekend's trip to Halifax and is likely to feature on the bench.
