‘I am a big fan’: Darren Bent loves Leeds player Aston Villa reportedly want
TalkSPORT pundit Darren Bent has raved about Aston Villa target and Leeds United winger Jack Harrison.
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has said on talkSPORT that he believes that Leeds United winger Jack Harrison, linked with Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, is good enough to continue to play in the Premier League.
Leeds will play in the Championship next season after getting relegated from the Premier League.
Harrison has been linked with moves away from Elland Road in the summer transfer window.
On May 29, talkSPORT reported that West Ham United and Aston Villa are interested in signing the 26-year-old, who can also operate as an attacking midfielder.
And former Villa striker Bent believes that Harrison is good enough to play for a club in the Premier League.
Bent said about Harrison: “Brilliant. Two feet. I think people that play with him rate him a lot more highly than maybe spectators. I am a big fan of him and I really like him.”
Could Aston Villa sign Jack Harrison from Leeds United?
In our opinion, Aston Villa could be able to sign Jack Harrison from Leeds United in the summer transfer window.
Yes, Leeds are a big club, but they will play in the Championship next season and there is no guarantee that they will win promotion back to the Premier League anytime soon.
Harrison is a very good winger who has done extremely well in the Premier League.
We believe that the Englishman is good enough to play in the top flight of English football.
A good offer from Villa could be really hard for Leeds and Harrison to turn down.
Harrison has made 107 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career, scoring 21 goals and providing 16 assists in the process.
