Everton closing in on deal to re-sign Jack Harrison on loan from Leeds… with Sean Dyche’s side set to cover the midfielder’s wages but NOT pay a fee

Everton are progressing in talks with Leeds United over a fresh loan deal for Jack Harrison.

The 27-year-old made 35 appearances for Everton on loan last season, scoring four goals as he helped the Toffees to securing another year in the Premier League under Sean Dyche.

Harrison is contracted to Leeds until 2028 having signed a new deal in April last season, though the Whites were relegated just weeks later and Harrison faced the dilemma of whether to play in the Championship again.

A solution was worked, and he headed to Everton in August, missing the start of the Championship campaign with Leeds through injury.

Brenden Aaronson, Rasmus Kristensen, Diego Llorente, Marc Roca and Maximillian Wober also left on loan as the club tried to negotiate their way through their relegation.
