Amina UmarJack Harrison is set to return to Everton on loan from Leeds United in the coming days, according to reports.
The 27-year-old winger started 25 Premier League matches for Everton last season and Sean Dyche is keen to bring him back to Goodison Park for another year.However, the deal will not be a permanent one, as Leeds United’s Championship status means that the loan clause from last summer’s transfer window remains active. This means that Leeds United are powerless to stop Harrison from joining another club on loan, as long as they agree to pay his full wages.
Harrison has four years remaining on his contract with Leeds United, which he signed in January last year. However, it is unlikely that he will play for the club in the Championship, and Leeds United may revisit his situation in 2025 if they win promotion back to the Premier League.The loan deal is expected to be completed in the coming days, with Harrison set to join Everton for a second consecutive season. The move is no surprise, given Harrison’s warm words about his time at Everton last season.
The departure of Harrison is the latest in a series of exits from Leeds United this summer. Marc Roca is also expected to leave the club, with a permanent transfer to Real Betis reportedly agreed. Luke Ayling has joined Middlesbrough on a free transfer, while Ian Poveda and Lewis Bate have been released by the club.The sales are part of a major overhaul of the Leeds United squad, following the club’s relegation to the Championship last season.
The Whites are looking to rebuild and challenge for promotion back to the Premier League, and the sales of Harrison and Roca are expected to generate significant funds for the club.The transfer news has been met with mixed reactions from Leeds United fans, who are sad to see two of the club’s most talented players leave. However, many fans understand the need for the club to rebuild and strengthen its squad in order to challenge for promotion.
In other Leeds United news, Crysencio Summerville has been linked with a move to Brighton, with the Seagulls reportedly willing to pay a significant fee for the young winger. Max Wober has also been linked with a move away from the club, with several Premier League teams reportedly interested in the Austrian defender.Overall, the summer transfer window is shaping up to be a busy one for Leeds United, with several players expected to leave the club and new signings on the way. The Whites will be hoping to strengthen their squad and challenge for promotion back to the Premier League next season.
