Leeds United could potentially be on course to sign Harry Wilson in the ongoing transfer window.

The Wales international's contract at Fulham expires at the end of June and the speculation around his future has only been growing in recent months.

Last summer, the Whites were apparently close to sealing a move for the 29-year-old but failed to get a deal over the line in the end.

Now, Leeds are considered odds-on favourites by multiple bookmakers to sign Wilson as a free agent in the summer as he continues to attract interest from multiple Premier League clubs.

It isn't surprising to see the Welsh star catch the eyes of several clubs after an impressive season at Craven Cottage, scoring 10 goals and providing seven assists in the league.

Daniel Farke has made no secret about wanting to see ambition from the West Yorkshire outfit in the transfer window and the winger's arrival would certainly be a massive coup at Elland Road.

Harry Wilson odds emerge amid Leeds United interest

Multiple bookmakers have Leeds leading the race for Wilson, with Aston Villa considered second-favourites to acquire his signature.

The possibility of the forward staying at Fulham hasn't died down yet, with a contract extension at Craven Cottage in third place when it comes to the odds.

Everton are also considering contenders to sign the Wales international, with Benfica, who recently appointed Marco Silva as their new manager, fifth in the bookmakers' list.

Wilson has multiple options to choose from ahead of the 2026-27 campaign, but the appeal of playing alongside Karl Darlow, Joe Rodon, Ethan Ampadu and Daniel James may have a significant appeal.

Elland Road hierarchy to feat Harry Wilson repeat

Sources told Football Insider in April that Aston Villa had opened talks to sign Wilson on a free transfer, with the winger's representatives being contacted.

Unai Emery's team won the Europa League this season, and with their qualification for the Champions League, the Lions will arguably believe they can present a better project to the forward than Leeds.

The Whites will hope the prospect of guaranteed game time and the possibility of a big role at Elland Road with his Welsh contingent will be enough to entice the attacker.
