Everton: Jack Harrison talks scheduled in May as Leeds United exit update emerges
Everton loanee Jack Harrison is set to be sold permanently by his parent club Leeds United during the summer, according to GIVEMESPORT.
The digital news publication reported online (21 March) that discussions will take place over Harrison’s future at Elland Road when the season ends in May, with the feeling being that the 27-year-old will be permanently sold by the Whites.
Harrison has been a regular under Sean Dyche this season, although due to Everton’s financial struggles, signing the wideman permanently might prove to be difficult.
Dyche and his recruitment team will need to study their finances once their Premier League status is clear come May.

It is no secret that Dyche is a big fan of Harrison.
Harrison made his Everton debut in a 2-1 defeat to Luton Town at Goodison Park (30 September), and while the result was not a favourable one, Dyche was still full of praise for his on-loan ace after the final whistle.
As per Leeds Live (2 October), Dyche said, “He’s building up that true fitness and sharpness but I think you can see there’s talent there and there’s an effective player.”
Harrison has gone on to make 22 total appearances for the Toffees in England’s top flight, starting 20 of these matches, providing three goals and three assists.
However, the forward now finds himself in a tricky situation with his future beyond the summer currently unclear.
With Leeds yet to make a decision and promotion far from confirmed, while Everton struggle to balance the books at Goodison Park, there is a good chance that Harrison could end up at a completely different club by the time September comes around.
