EXCLUSIVE: Leeds United shows interest in signing 21-year-old player Manchester City star as Journalist confirms Farke wants player at Elland
Leeds United are interested in signing Taylor Harwood-Bellis from Manchester City on loan, but he could be available on a permanent basis.
Journalist John Percy shared that all three relegated teams are keen on the 21-year-old. Leeds United manager Daniel Farke will be desperate for reinforcements at Elland Road over the next few weeks.
Since joining the club, he’s seen many of his senior players depart with very few replacements brought in.
Ethan Ampadu, Sam Byram and Karl Darlow have been brought in but the results haven’t been positive thus far.
A draw with Cardiff City was followed up by a loss against Birmingham, with uncertainty around the likes of Wilfried Gnonto and Luis Sinisterra dominating proceedings.
Leeds are interested in signing Taylor Harwood-Bellis this summer but it might not be easy to convince him to join given how their campaign has begun. He’s got plenty of experience at this level and showed last season he knows how to get a team back to the Premier League.
Leeds are interested in Harwood-Bellis
Posting on Twitter, Percy said: “Manchester City defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis is a loan target for Championship clubs including Leicester, Leeds and Southampton.
“City are also open to selling the England under-21 captain at the right price before the window closes.”
They’ve raised almost no money in sales this summer compared to Southampton and Leicester. If it comes down to a bidding war, it’s very hard to see how Leeds win that right now.
Harwood-Bellis would be a brilliant addition, but it’s yet to be seen if Farke will get his man.
