Leeds United have already finalised the departure of Pascal Struijk this summer, and hope to confirm the arrival of Harry Wilson this week.
Leeds have several big decisions to make over the course of the next few weeks, as there are question marks over the futures of a few players at Elland Road.
Karl Darlow has yet to decide whether he is ready to sign a new contract with Leeds, and has two more offers on his table from Manchester United and Everton.
However, one more Leeds player is now closing in on an exit, and his departure is expected to be announced imminently after a deal was agreed with a Yorkshire rival.
Harry Gray is on the verge of joining Sheffield Wednesday
Rotherham United signed him on loan in January, and while they suffered relegation from League One, Harry Gray stood out in a very poor side.
It emerged that Leeds are planning to loan him out again to League One, but this time to a team higher up in the table who play a better brand of football.
Sheffield Wednesday have been in talks with Leeds over signing the young forward on loan, and a deal is expected to be announced imminently.
According to Sheffield Star journalist Alex Miller, the young forward is undergoing the final formalities ahead of completing a loan switch to Sheffield Wednesday.
The Owls see him as a player who can inspire them to promotion to the Championship and have pushed hard to convince Leeds and the striker’s camp.
Leeds agreed to the move as they wanted Gray to play for a club who have an expectant crowd as they seek to develop him for a future role at Elland Road.
A return to League One makes more sense
Harry Gray caught the eye despite playing in a struggling League One side last season, leading many to believe Leeds United would look to send him to the Championship for his next loan spell.
Interest from Sheffield United only added to that expectation, but he is now set to return to League One for one more loan spell.
Leeds are keen for Gray to join a club with realistic promotion ambitions and a positive, attacking style of play, believing that environment will give him the best platform to continue his development.
There is also confidence that he will get more regular minutes at that level. At a club such as Sheffield United, where Chris Wilder is expected to be under intense pressure to deliver promotion, a young striker may find first-team opportunities far harder to come by.
