Leeds United have been given an easy decision over Jack Harrison.
Leeds United winger Jack Harrison had a good end to the season despite the team’s play-off exit.
His performances might have persuaded Leeds to pursue a permanent deal – until a report in The Sun claimed Manchester City will seek £20 million for his signature.
It’s an outrageous fee for a player who scored just four goals last season.
City’s demands have made Leeds’ decision easy.
No longer do they have to waste time pursuing his signature, potentially falling short and having to look for alternatives. Now they can skip straight to trying to sign other wingers.
Considering Harrison’s lukewarm goal return, Leeds may well end up with a better player.
It’s done Leeds another favour too, with regard to top young talent Jack Clarke.
Clarke has attracted interest from Premier League clubs, The Mail reported.
Leeds have now been given licence to hike his price up as high as possible to put off suitors.
If Harrison is worth £20 million, Leeds should consider Clarke in the same range.
