Leeds United have reached an agreement to sign Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi on loan, although Sheffield United and Hull City remain in contention, according to Sky Sports.
Rak-Sakyi endured a difficult season at Selhurst Park last year, managing just eight appearances across all competitions, and was subsequently left out of the Eagles’ squad for their tour of the United States. However, this frustrating campaign did follow a productive loan spell at Charlton Athletic, a stint which has prompted interest from a host of Championship clubs, as well as Premier League side Southampton.
The Saints are now expected to miss out on the 21-year-old, with Palace favouring loaning the player out to a non-rival in the second division. Last season’s Championship play-off final contenders are said to have reached an agreement for the youngster on a season-long loan, although Rak-Sakyi himself is yet to decide on which offer to take up.
