Leeds United winger Jack Harrison is expected to be confirmed at Everton for a second successive loan this week.
After missing out on promotion to the Premier League, Leeds have a transfer problem as exits are the order of the day.
Loan clauses won’t be a serious issue this time around, as the 49ers want to immediately wash their hands of the remaining two players with those clauses in their deals.
Jack Harrison is one of the players who could leave the club again on loan after the play-off defeat, but his destination appears to be over.
The winger is on his way back to Goodison Park and Everton for a second successive season, linking up with Sean Dyche after helping the Toffees stave off relegation worries once again.
Sky Sports’ Tim Thornton said on June 22 that a deal for the player to rejoin Everton would be completed within the next 48 hours – and it has been 48 hours since that revelation.
The 27-year-old is no stranger to staying fit in the off-season, having undergone a major transformation in the summer of 2019 before returning to Marcelo Bielsa’s side.
He shared the news on his Instagram page as he prepares to rejoin Everton:
Harrison was not consistent at all in the Premier League last season, which led to many criticisms of his performances from his fans.
But his work ethic has never been in question and his quality out of possession is something Dyche will surely like.
That alone is probably a good reason for them to reignite his loan deal, knowing he will make a huge difference when he does play.
If he improves his production, they might consider signing him permanently next summer.
