After suffering a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat in the Championship playoff final against Southampton, the Premier League hopefuls saw their promotion dreams dashed. However, hope is not lost for one of their standout players, Crysencio Summerville.
According to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, both Liverpool and Chelsea are closely ‘monitoring’ the young Dutchman as they look ahead to the summer transfer window. The CaughtOffside columnist revealed on his YouTube channel that Summerville is expected to make a move this summer, with Liverpool and Chelsea showing the most interest in securing his services.
With 19 goals to his name in Leeds’ Championship campaign, Summerville’s impressive performances have caught the eye of top clubs. At just 22 years old, he can play on either wing and boasts exceptional statistics in xG and touches in the opposing box.
The potential transfer has all the makings of a smart move for any club’s recruitment department. As Leeds may need to offload players to make up for lost funds, the opportunity to sign Summerville becomes even more enticing.
Liverpool, in particular, will be keen not to miss out on such a promising talent, especially with their exciting project under Jurgen Klopp. With Chelsea also in the running, the race to secure Summerville’s signature is sure to be one to watch this summer.
