This week, the Whites completed an important off-field transaction in the form of a new contract extension for Jack Harrison.
Leeds United have stated that the 26-year-old has signed a new long-term contract that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2028:
Harrison’s future at Leeds is now secure, and the winger is looking forward to a lucrative few years after putting rumors to rest.
Here, we look at two goals the winger has set for himself in the future…
The major priority for Harrison and Leeds is to stay in the Premier League, with the match against Crystal Palace on Sunday being a huge deciding factor.

A home win over Nottingham Forest was a major lift, but Leeds and their in-form winger still have work to do.
After signing his deal, he told the club’s official website:
“We relished that moment [winning against Forest] because it was a huge game for us and a crucial three points.”
“At the same time, we have another game coming up, and we know the job isn’t done yet.”
“We have unfinished business, and we must take it game by game.” From today till Sunday, we’ve been rehearsing.
“It’s another big game for us, and we’ll need the fans to back us up again, just like we did against Forest.” Then, perhaps, we’ll be able to show them the real Elland Road.
The World Cup is of course something for players in the Premier League to be aiming for, and Harrison is one of those.
According to Jesse Marsch, he isn’t too far away from the national squad, having received recognition from Gareth Southgate prior to the Qatar World Cup.
Harrison is now looking forward to the 2026 World Cup after signing a contract with Leeds, as he told the Telegraph:
“I believe I can play there, and my numbers are right up there when compared to some of the other top players in the league.” I believe in my abilities and what I am capable of doing. It will always be a goal for me.
“With the World Cup back in the United States, I feel like it’s almost written.” It is not a given, thus I must prove it.
