Hide AdOn returning to Leeds, Harrison said: “It is exciting to be back, the end of last year was disappointing with how it ended, so this year myself and the lads are looking to redeem ourselves and build on last year.
“I think most people felt that we should have gone up last season, but we are all looking to get back at it now and hopefully we can get the promotion this time around.”
Meanwhile, White, 21, is confident that working with Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa will prove beneficial for his burgeoning career.
The Brighton academy product spent time out on loan at Newport County during the 2017-18 campaign, before joining Peterborough United in January where he made 16 appearances for the League One side.

“I have heard loads about Marcelo Bielsa, he is an amazing manager, especially with young players. I am sure he is going to really improve me, which is what I am looking to do this season.”
Leeds have also completed the signing of highly-rated young Carlisle United winger Liam McCarron, 18, for an undisclosed fee, with the Appleby-based teenager signing a three-year deal.
The fee is reportedly in the region of £250,000 to £300,000 for McCarron, who will begin life in Leeds’s under-23 squad.
