# Leeds United Squad Update: Jack Harrison’s Exclusion Fuels Pre-Match Drama Ahead of Tomorrow’s Spurs Clash
**Leeds, October 3, 2025** – With kick-off against Tottenham Hotspur looming tomorrow at 12:30pm BST, Daniel Farke’s bold call to omit Jack Harrison from the traveling squad has dominated headlines. The winger, fresh off a two-year Everton loan, was a surprise absentee from today’s final training session at Thorp Arch, confirmed by club insiders as a precautionary measure amid ongoing “internal discussions.”
Harrison, who featured in Leeds’ last-gasp 2-2 draw with Bournemouth on September 28, has tallied one assist in six appearances this season but struggled with consistency post-relegation backlash. Farke, speaking at his pre-match presser this afternoon, remained cryptic: “Squad selection is fluid right now. Jack’s a key asset, but tomorrow’s about the collective push.” Sources suggest the decision ties to minor fitness niggles from international duty, though fans smell deeper issues – his frosty pre-season reception still lingers.
Leeds sit 12th after a mixed bag: a 3-1 win at Wolves followed by the Bournemouth heartbreak. Injury woes compound the drama – Illan Meslier starts in goal with Lucas Perri sidelined (thigh), while Manor Solomon’s Spurs return leaves flanks thin. Expected lineup: Meslier; Bogle, Rodon, Ampadu, Byram; Gruev, Tanaka; Ramazani, Aaronson, Gnonto; Calvert-Lewin. Daniel James pushes for a bench spot despite an ankle tweak.
- Spurs, under Thomas Frank, arrive unbeaten away but draw-prone (1-1 vs. Wolves). Pundits tip a cagey 1-1, with Leeds’ home fortress (unbeaten in four) key. Social buzz? #HarrisonSnub trends, with supporters split: “Tough love or vendetta?” one fan posted. Farke eyes three points to climb mid-table – will Harrison’s shadow derail it?
