da dobrowin： According to reports in The Sun, Leeds will have to pay £20 million if they want to bring Jack Harrison to Elland Road permanently this summer.
That would mean making the 22-year-old the second most expensive signing in the club’s history just behind the arrival of Rio Ferdinand back in 2000.
Not that good
Man City slapping that price tag on the winger is surely more of a deterrent than an actual valuation.
Harrison only contributed to seven goals this campaign, scoring four and assisting three. Therefore the £20 million fee seems to be extortionate.
Despite his less than impressive stats this year, The Sun have reported that the Whites are ‘desperate’ to bring him back to Yorkshire in the summer.
Take a chance on Wilks
Unless the Premier League champions lower that asking price significantly, there is no way that Harrison lines up as a Leeds United player next season.
He hasn’t impressed enough to justify that fee, and with other options being available for a much better price surely Victor Orta and Andrea Radrizzani will look elsewhere.
Callum O’Dowda has already been touted as a possible replacement, but Leeds shouldn’t forget that they have Mallik Wilks returning from his loan spell at Doncaster Rovers, too.
Wilks has been a star in League One, scoring 14 goals and crafting eight assists. If he can get anywhere close to those numbers in the Championship, he will prove to be a better option than Harrison was, and it wouldn’t cost Marcelo Bielsa’s side a single penny.
The 20-year-old has more than earnt his chance at Elland Road next term, and it would be nothing short of foolish to splash all that money on the Man City man when they have a player who could prove to be a better option already in their ranks.
