Tottenham Hotspur are still interested in Jack Harrison, that Leeds United now want more than £60 million for the winger.

Harrison has made a brilliant start to the campaign. Heading into the season, there may have been doubts over how the 25-year-old would really fare under Jesse Marsch.

Marsch tends to prefer a narrower system. And with that, some may have wondered whether Harrison would really suit the formation.

However, any concerns over that have been put to bed emphatically. Harrison has been electric in the opening weeks of the campaign.

He has scored one and provided three assists. And he is arguably playing the best football of his Leeds spell. Jermain Defoe labelled him ‘brilliant‘ following his performance against Chelsea on Sunday.

Unsurprisingly, there is interest. Reports have claimed that Newcastle have made a second bid for Harrison over the last week.

But the Magpies are not the only team. that Spurs continue to monitor Harrison. However, Leeds now want more than £60 million for the former Manchester City man.

Harrison is quickly becoming Leeds’ most important player. He scored a number of goals last season. But it is probably fair to say that his form was not overly impressive over the whole year.

However, something appears to have clicked in the opening games. So Leeds fans will be delighted to hear that £60 million will not be enough to get a deal done.

It would be a huge statement if Tottenham made a bid Leeds were willing to accept. But, as things stand, that scenario seems highly unlikely.
