[According to The Athletic](https://theathletic.com/1518543/2020/01/09/leeds-arsenal-transfers-loans-nketiah/), the Manchester City loanee will be available to sign on a permanent deal next summer for a fee believed to be just £8m.

The report also revealed what the fee would be if the Whites wanted to sign young ‘keeper [Illan Meslier](https://theathletic.com/1518543/2020/01/09/leeds-arsenal-transfers-loans-nketiah/) on a permanent deal (£4m).

Harrison has been a key player for Marcelo Bielsa this season, having scored five goals and assisted a further six as the Yorkshire outfit sit top of the Championship [(via Transfermarkt)](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/jack-harrison/leistungsdaten/spieler/417346)

On the other hand, Meslier announced himself to the fans for the first time on Monday evening as he put in a [‘strong’](https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-pundit-admits-relief-over-biggest-worry-at-leeds-after-recent-sighting/) performance in the FA Cup defeat away to Arsenal.

Fans were thrilled with the news that Harrison could be signed for a fee south of £10m as they took to Twitter to react.

Here is a selection of tweets from the Elland Road faithful:
