Harry Wilson transfer plan emerges at Leeds United ahead of January window
Leeds United were interested in Harry Wilson over the summer.
Wilson could have left Fulham for Leeds in the most recent window, but ultimately stuck around at Craven Cottage for the first half of the season.
The Wales international was seemingly open to an Elland Road switch as Wilson waited on the green light at Leeds.
A deadline day deal collapsed for Wilson at Leeds and left Daniel Farke without an additional forward ready for the Premier League.
The January window is fast approaching in LS11, with a plan already seemingly in place for the future of Wilson.
Leeds plan for Harry Wilson changes ahead of January
Wilson’s failed move to Leeds was a blow for Farke as he was desperate to bring in a new attacking midfield or winger option before the summer market closed.
The 28-year-old remained in the capital and has gone on to have a positive campaign, having contributed to five goals in 12 Premier League starts.
That sort of form could drum up further interest in the Welshman with just weeks until the mid-season transfer window opens.
The Whites won’t be turning their attentions back to Wilson due to their recent tactical change and resulting upturn in performances.
Leeds Live reported on 11 November that Leeds wanted the Fulham man and Facundo Buonanotte in the summer, but the new 3-5-2 formation has negated the need for players in those positions.
The focus in January is more likely to be on midfielders, wing-backs, and strikers to strengthen coverage across the pitch under the current approach.
Wilson set for Leeds United snub after summer approach
The new system under Farke has seen minutes drop for the likes of Brenden Aaronson and Jack Harrison compared to earlier in the campaign.
Leeds are now getting much more out of the likes of Gabriel Gudmundsson, Lukas Nmecha and Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Adding players in and around them will only be a boost for the Whites, but it is safe to say that Wilson wouldn’t suit the formation.
The ex-Liverpool man wants to operate from the right wing or as a number 10, something which the Elland Road outfit just don’t need right now, even after a keen approach in the summer.
