Kadeem Harris shone for Cardiff in the Premier League on Saturday and is now linked with Championship giants Leeds United.

Jack Harrison arrived on loan at Leeds United with the praise of Pep Guardiola ringing in his ears after an impressive pre-season with Manchester City.

But under Marcelo Bielsa, the 21-year-old is yet to show why he’s so highly regarded at the Etihad Stadium. In 13 games, Harrison has scored just once and failed to produce a single assist while he has looked worryingly out of his depth on occasions against Championship opposition.

So the winger must improve over the next few weeks with Leeds seemingly eyeing a potential upgrade ahead of the January transfer window.

The Sun reports that Leeds, as well as Aston Villa, are keeping tabs on Cardiff City’s Kadeem Harris, the star of their 2-1 win against Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday.

It is understood that the 25-year-old is yet to open talks over extending a deal that expires at the end of this season so Harris could move to Elland Road, or Villa Park, on the cheap should Cardiff be willing to cash in.

And with Harris proving himself in recent weeks as a wide man of potential Premier League quality, Harrison could be set to spend the next few months on the bench unless he can step up his game before January.
