Jack Harrison relishing third season with Leeds United only this time in the Premier League
and live on Freeview channel 276
Manchester City winger Harrison has thrived during two season-long loan spells at Elland Road and the clubs are understood to be working on the details of what is likely to be a third loan with an option to buy at the end of it.
Harrison bagged six goals and eight assists as United stormed to promotion as Championship champions and the 23-year-old says he is now relishing the prospect of getting stuck into the Premier League.

“I still don't think it's quite sunk in yet," said Harrison, speaking in an interview with ESPN.
"I don't think it will really sink in until the first game where you walk out obviously in a Premier League stadium.
"We don't know the fixtures yet or anything like that but until we start preparing for that I don't think it will really sink in until then.

“I'll be there again next season so it's exciting to go back and do it all again in a few weeks."
Reflecting on the recent celebrations of promotion as champions, Harrison smiled: "There were definitely some controlled celebrations under the circumstances but we had our fair share of celebrations.
"Everybody is really happy and I think now everyone just wants to start getting back to the Premier League.
