Everton have completed a season-long loan deal for Leeds winger Jack Harrison.
The move is understood to be a straight loan without an option for Everton to buy the 26-year-old winger, but there is a release clause included which can be invoked during the loan spell.
Aston Villa enquired about a similar deal but pulled out because of Harrison's current hip injury, which is set to keep him out for around three to four weeks.

The Italy international has ruled himself out of selection for the club's recent fixtures, despite being told he will not be sold during the summer window.
Harrison is the Toffees' fourth signing of the summer, following the permanent additions of Yousseff Chermiti and Ashley Young, as well as the loan deal for Arnaut Danjuma.
Villa were considering Harrison as a potential replacement for Emiliano Buendia, who suffered an ACL injury last week and is set to miss the majority of the 2023/24 campaign.
