According to The Sun, Leeds United are interested in Liverpool’s Harry Wilson and if he does arrive at Elland Road then he could be a difference maker for Marcelo Bielsa’s team.

Leeds were so close to earning promotion this past season, and their squad clearly only needs tweaking rather than major surgery this summer.

The Whites need one or two players with genuine quality, and they then should be set to get over the line next term.

Leeds are already believed to be making transfer plans, and links with Wilson should be hugely exciting.

If Leeds had been able to call upon Wilson this term, then it may have ended very differently.

Wilson smashed in 18 goals for Derby this campaign, and if Leeds could have had that sort of goalscoring threat from out wide, then Bielsa’s side may well have won the league.

A key reason why Leeds fell short in the end was their inability to put the ball in the back of the net.

However, Wilson’s arrival would help to solve any issues they had in the attacking department.

Harry Wilson of Derby looks on during the Sky Bet Championship between Derby County and Nottingham Forest at Pride Park Stadium on December 17, 2018 in Derby, England.

The 22-year-old would arrive at Elland Road with a further year’s experience under his belt, and he would have the potential to be the most devastating attacking player in the division.

With Bielsa happy to offer his forward players so much freedom, Wilson could be destructive at Leeds.

And if there is a possibility of completing a deal with Liverpool, the Whites should be doing everything in their power to bring Wilson to Elland Road.
