Dominic Calvert-Lewin celebrating while playing for Leeds United
Manchester United have been linked with a potential January move for the England international.
As things stand, the 29-year-old will enter the final year of his deal at the end of the season.
The Elland Road hierarchy want to tie Calvert-Lewin down to a new contract, and it looks like a decision has been made.
Man United are looking for attacking reinforcements after losing Benjamin Sesko for an extended period due to injury.
It isn't surprising to see the Red Devils keep an eye on the former Everton ace after his fine form under Daniel Farke, but he seems to be going nowhere.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin contract latest at Leeds United
With Man United monitoring Calvert-Lewin's situation, the Whites have been keen to tie his future to the club.
The West Yorkshire outfit signed the striker on a three-year deal as a free agent after he left Everton.
According to BBC Sport on 30 October, Calvert-Lewin is set to sign a new contract at Leeds.
There has been no indication of the length of the new deal or whether the centre-forward is expected to get a pay rise at the Peacocks.
Double contract announcement could be on cards at Elland Road
Farke has agreed a contract in principle with Leeds as uncertainty around his future grew.
The German manager is in the final year of his deal at the West Yorkshire outfit, but is expected to commit his future at Elland Road.
Lukas Nmecha and Ilia Gruev are the players whose contracts expire next summer and it remains to be seen what the future holds for them.
For now, it looks like the Peacocks will announce new contracts for Farke and Calvert-Lewin at Thorp Arch imminently.
The head coach and striker have undoubtedly been two of the most important figures in Leeds' success recently and deserve fresh terms.
Next up, the Whites will have to decide what to do with Nmecha and Gruev.
Farke has plenty of options in the engine room right now, but Joel Piroe's summer exit has left the Peacocks with a lack of depth up front.
