Jack Harrison has been struggling for game time at Leeds United this season.
The winger has played a little over 400 minutes under Daniel Farke, despite having played regularly in the Premier League last season. Harrison spent last season on loan at Everton and made 38 appearances for the Toffees.
The 29-year-old is now on the verge of a shock exit from Leeds United, with a deal closing in.
Gianluca di Marzio reports talks are underway between the Whites and Fiorentina about the attacker.
There is a lot of confidence in Italy that a deal should close soon. La Viola have already made two signings in January and Harrison is expected to be the third arrival of the window.
It is believed that talks are in the final stages, with an agreement in principle in place between the two clubs.
Alfredo Pedulla offers similar, claiming the deal will go through soon. As of now, the exact details of the terms are unknown. The move has progressed quite quickly, which shows the Yorkshire club’s desperation to let the English leave.
Leeds United player to join fresh relegation battle
Gazzetta dello Sport also report on the deal but aren’t as advanced. They speak of simple interest, pointing out that Harrison’s current deal at Elland Road runs out in 2028. It is indicated that this can potentially hold up negotiations and delay the move.
This won’t be the Leeds United player’s first venture abroad. He has previously played at New York City FC for two seasons and this helped him seal a move back to England in 2018.
Fiorentina – like the Whites, find themselves in a relegation battle. They are looking to restructure their squad and this can help Harrison get more game time this season.
Tottenham sporting director Fabio Paratici is set to move to La Viola after the January window. Despite still being at Spurs it’s thought he’s masterminding Fiorentina’s business right now.
