# Leeds: Fee agreed for permanent Jack Harrison deal

**Talks are underway between Leeds and Manchester City over the permanent signing of winger Jack Harrison.**

That’s according to Jeremy Cross, the [Daily Star](https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/leeds-jack-harrison-transfer-exclusive-24159825)‘s Chief Sports Writer.

### The lowdown

Harrison has spent the last three seasons on loan at Leeds, who [contractually have the first option to buy](https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/leeds-jack-harrison-transfer-exclusive-24159825).

The 24-year-old has made [35 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-harrison/leistungsdaten/spieler/417346) in their first season back in the top flight. With a game still to play, he’s on a [commendable tally](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-harrison/leistungsdaten/spieler/417346) of eight goals and eight assists.

[No English midfielder](https://twitter.com/search?q=jack%20harrison&src=typed_query) has been directly involved in more goals in the Premier League this season.

Harrison starred in the 4-0 win at Burnley last weekend, scoring Leeds’ second goal before teeing-up a late brace for substitute Rodrigo.

BT Sport pundit Peter Crouch [said](https://www.leedsunited.news/exclusives/exclusive-nigel-martyn-raves-about-leeds-united-star-jack-harrison-and-discusses-peter-crouch-claim/) Harrison had had a ‘fantastic’ season and had ‘to be in with a shout’ of featuring in Gareth Southgate’s England squad, while Chris Coleman [reckons](https://twitter.com/footballdaily/status/1358882509141004297) he would be a ‘joy to play with’ if you were a full-back.

### The latest

[According to Cross](https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/leeds-jack-harrison-transfer-exclusive-24159825), Bielsa is said to be ‘desperate’ to keep Harrison and Leeds are looking to tie him down.

Cross reports that a £15million fee has already been agreed between the two parties with talks now officially underway to secure Harrison’s future in Yorkshire.

### The verdict

Rightly, this looks to be Leeds’ first priority: secure Harrison’s future and then focus on the areas that need upgrading.

The Englishman has gone from strength to strength this season and at only 24, could make a huge contribution going forward.

£15million could be regarded as a snip for a player ranked as the club’s [sixth-best performer this term](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/19/Show/England-Leeds).
