‘Leeds set for Jack Harrison decision that could impact club’s Manor Solomon pursuit’
Leeds United have a key decision to make regarding Jack Harrison and Manor Solomon during the summer transfer window.
Harrison is set to return to Elland Road this summer, having spent both of the last two seasons on loan at Everton.
On the other hand, Manor Solomon’s stint with the Whites is coming to an end, after he impressed in the Championship while on loan from Tottenham.
The Israel international helped Leeds win the second-tier title by notching 10 goals and 12 assists in 39 league appearances.
Leeds can keep Harrison to avoid Solomon outlay
The West Yorkshire giants face a huge task in utilising the summer transfer window wisely to equip themselves for the Premier League.
But keeping Harrison after his return from Everton would add plenty of top-flight experience back to Farke’s ranks.
Furthermore, in his last Premier League season with the Whites, the 28-year-old notched a return of five goals and seven assists, which is significantly better than the one goal and zero assist haul he has managed for the Merseyside club this term.

If Leeds trust that Harrison can return to his best once he returns to West Yorkshire, it would save them from splashing cash on fellow winger Solomon, while Tottenham can command a hefty fee thanks to his successful exploits in the Championship at Elland Road.
Leeds lead the race for Dynamo Kyiv star
If Leeds favour keeping Harrison over making a move for Solomon, it will allow Farke to turn his attentions to other areas of the field in the transfer window.
Aside from the man who has spent the last two seasons on loan with the Toffees, the West Yorkshire side boast quality widemen such as Dan James, Willy Gnonto, and Largie Ramazani.
But Farke should be intent on signing a new striker this summer, and Football Insider have exclusively revealed that Leeds lead the race for Dynamo Kyiv star Vladyslav Vanat amid interest from the likes of Fulham and Everton.
The 23-year-old forward has enjoyed a successful campaign with the Ukrainian club, having scored 21 goals and created six assists in 45 appearances across all competitions.
The striker’s efforts helped Dynamo win the Ukrainian Premier League title, meaning that they will have an opportunity to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
