Jack Harrison's loan from Leeds United to Everton is expected to be announced imminently in a deal that underlines one of the previous ownership's worst legacies

Loan clauses are not expected to strangle Leeds United in this transfer window as much as they did 12 months ago, but they are not dead and buried. Seven players were able to walk out on Daniel Farke and the Whites last summer without the club being able to do a thing.

If an exit is agreed as the best outcome, then surely a sale is the way Leeds would have wanted to go.

It all boils down, like so many moves last year, to the clause Orta et al put so much faith in, the clause Farke has derided in the strongest possible terms at every opportunity. Leeds even had the chance to move on from that kind of deal when they gave Harrison a new contract just 14 months ago. It was a deal which committed Harrison to Elland Road, with messages of unfinished business, until 2028. Leeds were two points above the drop zone when they agreed to give him that escape clause.
