Newcastle United transfer target Jack Harrison has labelled Leeds United’s atmosphere as ‘unbelievable’, as posted on his Instagram.

The 25-year-old is on the transfer radar of Newcastle, but judging by his social media post, he is happy in his current surroundings because he told his Leeds teammates ‘let’s keep it rolling’ after an opening win in the Premier League on Saturday for Jesse Marsch’s side.

The Yorkshire outfit came from behind to beat Wolves 2-1 at Elland Road, with Harrison supplying the assist for Rodrigo’s equalising goal, before Ryan Ait-Nouri’s own goal sealed the points.

Leeds weren’t the only ones adding three points to their name yesterday because Newcastle also beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 in front of a packed-out St James’ Park crowd.

It’s Southampton up next for Marsch and his men, whilst Eddie Howe takes his players down to the south coast to take on Brighton next week, who beat Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Nonetheless, this is what Harrison posted on IG following Leeds’ victory in the Premier League.

WILL JACK HARRISON STAY AT LEEDS?

Well, the former Manchester City player is getting regular starts under Marsch and judging by his social media pots, he does seem happy.

But Newcastle have all the money in the world to throw at the player and if they are really serious, then too much money might just become the right amount for those in the Elland Road boardroom.

It has been suggested that the Whites are demanding £40 million for the versatile winger, who will be at St James’ Park on December 31st, it’s just a case of what colours will he be donning.

It would be tempted to move to a club like Newcastle that’s building this long-term project, but at the end of the day, they aren’t in Europe, so he is better off staying at Leeds.

Harrison is a popular figure at Leeds, and from their perspective, they can’t afford to lose another key member of the team after selling Kalvin Phillips and Raphinha.
