last month, sports witness He shared the optimistic outlook in Italy regarding Leeds United’s Jack Harrison.

The attacker had joined Fiorentina on loan from the Whites, with Tottenham’s Manor Solomon also ending up at La Viola.

Harrison made an impact in his first two games, coming off the bench and getting an assist in a 2–2 draw against Torino. Right after that, the Englishman became a regular starter. He started against Como and scored in an important 1–0 win over Pisa.

Unfortunately for Fiorentina, they were on the receiving end of a huge 3–0 defeat against Udinese. Harrison started in that game and failed to make an impression, disappointing greatly with his ability in the final third.

Now the Leeds United loanee is coming under criticism and it’s coming from a number of angles.

Many are not impressed with the Leeds United player

Journalist Riccardo Trevisani spoke to Cronache di Spogliatoio about the winger.

He had some harsh words about him, especially in the wake of the Udinese defeat. The Italian also compared him to Tottenham’s Solomon.

He said- Via violanews: : “Harrison is an irrelevant player, he doesn’t move anything; Solomon is much better. If yesterday was worse than usual, it is because Dodo and Solomon were missing, who, along with Keane, are the most in-form players at Fiorentina.”

La Nazione’s Stefano Cecchi also dropped Harrison’s name, and it was not positive.

The journalist told Toscana TV – relayed by fiorentinanews: : I hope this is due to the change in formation. The problem is that nothing worked. Harrison, defense. I will not criticize Rugani, he played so poorly that it is not worth talking about.

He further said: “Gudmundsson? He’s played three good games this year, I expect a lot more from a player like him than Harrison.”

Harrison finds himself under pressure

The 29-year-old would always have been criticized had he not been an instant hero. Fiorentina are battling relegation, which is not their expected situation. The team is in shocking form and the crisis situation means fingers are being pointed.

Fiorentina have the option to buy him permanently from Leeds United. This is possible only if they remain in Serie A.
