Leeds United would lose nearly £5million from the sale of Jack Harrison if Newcastle United meet his £35million valuation, according to the Mirror, after it emerged a portion of the profits would go to Manchester City.
The 25-year-old signed on a permanent deal at Elland Road last summer after three seasons on-loan, with the Whites paying £11million and signing the winger on a three-year contract. But City inserted a sell-on clause within the deal, entitling them to 20% of the profits made from any future sale.
And now the Magpies are circling. Harrison has scored 16 goals and added nine assists in his two Premier League seasons, including Leeds’ first goal upon their return to the top-flight and the 94th-minute winner on the final day of last season at Brentford.
