Leeds United prospect Harry Gray is on the radars of Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, as per TBR Football.
Leeds United are a club renowned for their development of young players. LUFC boast one of the country’s most productive academies and have done for some time.
While the flow of starlets to the Whites’ first-team might not be as strong as it once was, it hasn’t stopped some top talents from appearing in and around the ranks in recent seasons.

Mateo Joseph has become a regular over the past year-and-a-half or so, while James Debayo and Sam Chambers have been in and around the setup this season too.
Among the other Leeds United hopefuls tipped for a big future is Harry Gray, and the teenage striker’s talent is not going unnoticed.
According to TBR Football, all of Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are interested in 16-year-old Gray and could make a move. Spurs already have his elder brother Archie on their books, signing him from LUFC last summer.
It is said that Leeds are confident of keeping Gray despite having to wait until October to time him down to a professional contract when he turns 17.
Looking to keep Gray
Leeds United have seen some top talents leave for elite academies over the years but they’ll be hopeful of holding onto Gray.

As they have shown before, there is a pathway to the first-team for top LUFC academy youngsters. Gray could definitely make the break into the senior setup in the coming years, with some perhaps even hopeful of seeing him in the fray in 2025.
The teenager has managed the step through the age levels brilliantly, hence interest from top clubs like Arsenal, Spurs and Newcastle United. The Whites will be hopeful of fending off their admiration though and keeping Gray for the foreseeable.

The 2023/24 campaign was the year Archie Gray announced himself on the senior stage at Leeds United and many are backing his younger brother to follow in his footsteps.

Spurs are hoping he’ll follow that trajectory, perhaps even ending up on their books in the future. The North Londoners regularly look to add top youth talents to their setup and Gray could be one of the next.
Time will tell just what the future holds, but the LUFC prodigy is certainly a player to keep an eye on in the coming years.
