Sky Sports drop new Leeds United transfer update as exciting Harry Wilson news emerges
Leeds United have made a more-than-solid start to their Premier League return, but already eyes are on the January transfer window.
Despite Leeds’ 2-1 loss to Tottenham at the weekend, the Whites have collected eight points from seven matches and are four points above the relegation zone.
Daniel Farke made clear at the end of the summer transfer window he would have liked more attacking players, with Leeds falling short for a deal to sign Harry Wilson from Fulham.
However, Leeds have PSR concerns to deal with in the January transfer window that could restrict what business they do.
Sky Sports have now shared a new update on what to expect at Elland Road in the summer transfer window.
Harry Wilson still on Leeds’ radar ahead of January transfer window
Wilson would have been a Leeds player had the Whites not left it until the very final seconds to sort a deal.
As it is, the 28-year-old remains a Fulham player and has showed signs of his brilliance at times in the Premier League this season.
However, it may well be that Leeds make a fresh approach for the Wales international when the summer transfer window reopens.
Providing an exciting update on Leeds’ business on Sky Sports News on Tuesday, reporter Mark McAdam said: “They are monitoring the market for wingers in January, but Daniel Farke and the Leeds board are conscious about PSR.
“They maxed it out in the summer and that will impact what they do in January. Harry Wilson’s not been ruled out as he couldn’t sign a new contract at Fulham.
“So that is one to keep an eye on in an area of concern for Daniel Farke.”

What is Wilson’s contract situation at Fulham?
Fulham took up the option to extend Wilson‘s contract until the end of the current season in May, giving them a little extra leeway.
Wilson spoke about wanting to extend his deal at Craven Cottage further, but that was before Leeds‘ interest surfaced.
The ball is very much in the Wales international’s court in that regard. He could sign fresh terms, or he could make clear he is open to an exit in which case Leeds simply must pounce.
Wilson is a proven player at Premier League level and would not cost a huge amount given that aforementioned contract situation.
There are still a couple of months between now and the transfer window reopening, but it is positive that Leeds are already on the lookout for some new options.
