Former Aston Villa attacker Gabby Agbonlahor believes Jack Harrison could turn down a new contract offer in favour of a big money move elsewhere.

The pundit has said, as per Football Insider:

“Leeds won’t be big payers. Maybe, he’s looking at that. Football, yes, you love playing at clubs but you want to be earning as much money as possible.

“Maybe that’s going through his mind. He’ll see Dan Burn, (Kieran) Trippier (at Newcastle) and all these players going for big money wages and thinking of that himself. I don’t think he signs a new contract unless Leeds improve his pay a lot.”
