Leeds dealt possible huge blow as another 'big' player could also go this summer - report

Leeds United could potentially lose Jack Harrison in the summer transfer window, according to a report from The Daily Mail.

The 25-year-old has been a key man for the Whites for a number of years now, helping them return to the Premier League and continuing to perform in the top flight.

Harrison has 50 goal contributions (28 goals and 22 assists) in 166 appearances for Leeds, with presenter David Brown once hailing him as a ‘joke’ of a player while Marcelo Bielsa also highlighted the versatile starlet as a ‘big’ player.

It could be that the winger moves on this summer, however, should a fresh update be believed.

According to The Daily Mail, Newcastle are keen on signing Harrison in the near future and are willing to pay £20million for his services.

It is stated that amount falls short of Leeds’ valuation, but a worrying claim suggests the Magpies are not alone, as ‘so many clubs’ are attracted to Harrison’s versatility.

With Raphinha officially following Kalvin Phillips out the exit door earlier in the week, losing Harrison in the same transfer window would be a big blow, even if he isn’t on the Brazilian’s level.

The Englishman has been a reliable source of end product down the years and also works relentlessly for the team, and Jesse Marsch would surely rather keep hold of him.

Harrison may not be a guaranteed regular week in, week out moving forward, especially if more summer business is done at Elland Road, but he knows Leeds inside out and losing him to another Premier League team would hurt.
