Tottenham Hotspur: Journalist makes claim on Leeds star

Image for Tottenham Hotspur: Journalist makes claim on Leeds star

Journalist Dean Jones has claimed that despite the rumours of a move to Spurs for Jack Harrison, he does not see the deal going through for the Leeds winger. 

Spurs acquired the services of Dejan Kulusevski on an 18-month loan deal from Juventus in January, so he will be with the club until the end of next season. The 21-year-old has started life well in the Premier League having made seven-goal involvements in 10 Premier League games, as per Transfermarkt.

Jack Harrison has been recognised as somebody who Antonio Conte may be looking at in the summer after his current side Leeds have had a poor campaign in the Premier League this term, with a bid reportedly planned by Daniel Levy and Spurs.

Despite Harrison being linked with a move to Spurs, Dean Jones claimed to GIVEMESPORT that he can’t see the Leeds winger making the switch to North London anytime soon.

“I don’t really see that it’s likely. I can see why they might be interested in him at this point, but I don’t see it happening, to be honest with you,” Jones said.

How well do you know where these Spurs signings came from? Take our quiz to find out! Firstly, where did Dimitar Berbatov arrive from?

Jack Harrison has been part of a poor Leeds side this campaign and has been one of the lucky ones not to suffer with any serious injuries. He has made 28 appearances in the Premier League, has seven-goal involvements, and has been in impressive form recently after he was awarded a 7.3 and 7.6 player rating in his last two league games. He was even called ‘outstanding’ for his display against West Ham United earlier on this season by Paul Robinson.

Spurs now have Harry Kane, Son Heung-Min, and Dejan Kulusevski leading the line, and they have been heavily linked with Paulo Dybala, whose contract is set to expire at the end of the season. With all due respect to Harrison, Conte may be looking into players with Champions League experience such as Dybala, as he looks to push his side onto a team that is competing in the competition.
