Harvey Vincent should be next Leeds youngster in line for contract after Newcastle U21 scenes
Leeds United wasted no time wrapping up several youngsters earlier this summer.
The likes of Jacob Howard, Oliver Wood, Joshua Hamilton, Kenneth Mensah, Luke Matykiewicz and Loui Whitehead all signed professional terms.
Louie Philpott became the latest academy star to agree to fresh terms with the Peacocks on Tuesday.
Thorp Arch bosses and Daniel Farke now have a new priority after the Under-21s' 2-0 win over Newcastle.
They must now convince Harvey Vincent to agree to a new deal to keep him in Yorkshire.
It is paramount that the 19-year-old stays put in LS11 after the latest scenes from the former England Under-16 ace.
Why Leeds need to act on Harvey Vincent's contract situation
The Whites need to secure Vincent's future - it is as simple as that.
Vincent registered two assists in the win over the Magpies' youth side, playing a critical role in the victory.
His first was a low cross across the face of the box, which found Josh McDonald and he made no mistake.
The second was when his pass met Freddie Lane on the edge of the area and the full-back's deflected effort lopped into the goal.
His contract is set to expire in the summer of 2027, and the Peacocks must act urgently to keep him around.
How has Vincent performed so far this season?
Vincent has started the 2026-27 season in brilliant form.
He has featured four times in the Premier League 2 so far, with one goal and three assists.
According to FotMob data, Vincent has averaged 1.75 shots and 0.50 chances created on a per 90 minute basis.
The youngster has completed 50 per cent of his dribble attempts and 83.3 per cent of his passes.
He also helps out defensively, with 3.25 contributions per game, including 1.25 tackles, two recoveries and two clearances.
Farke is surely taking notice of his exploits, and right wing is an area where he may need reinforcements, with Dan James not exactly in form at the moment.
Harry Gray is the brightest talent in the academy at the moment, but while he is on loan with Sheffield Wednesday, there is a chance for Vincent to make an impression, and he is taking it so far.
