Carlton Palmer believes that Daniel Jebbison could be a valuable addition to Leeds United in the long run, emphasizing the importance of regular game time for the young striker next season.
Currently under contract with Sheffield United, Jebbison’s deal is set to expire soon, sparking speculation about his future. Leeds are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing him, facing competition from Premier League sides like Everton, Brighton, and Leicester.
Despite making history as Sheffield United’s youngest player to score in his first Premier League start back in 2021, Jebbison has struggled to establish himself with limited appearances for the club since then. However, he is recognized for his potential and has represented England at youth levels.
As Jebbison weighs his options with his contract expiring, Leeds could offer an appealing opportunity for the forward to feature in the Championship under Daniel Farke’s management. Palmer highlighted the need for strengthening Leeds’ striker position and raised concerns about Jebbison’s immediate impact, suggesting the need for consistent playing time to fulfill his potential.
While Jebbison’s future remains uncertain, Palmer emphasized the importance of game time for young players like Jebbison to continue their development. Leeds will need to address their striker situation with quality signings to compete effectively in the upcoming season.
