Leeds Is About To Invest In A Major Weapon For The……

Summerville has been a key part of Daniel Farke’s side so far this season, contributing 12 goals and six assists from 23 appearances in the Championship.

It has been reported that Brighton hold an interest in signing the Dutchman this winter as the Seagulls look to bolster their attacking options. Meanwhile, Newcastle United have also been linked with a move for Summerville, as both clubs aim to fight for a European qualification place in the Premier League.

Aston Villa are a third Premier League club to be linked.

Leeds, then, could have a fight on their hands to hold onto one of their most important players beyond the winter transfer deadline.

Prutton believes that Summerville could leave Elland Road this month if the right offer arrives.

However, the EFL pundit has claimed that Leeds should be doing everything they can to convince the forward to remain with the club until at least the summer.

“There will also be an element of interest in Leeds’ players given attack-wise what we have seen from them, in particular Crysencio Summerville given the interest in him prior to anything really happening this season,” wrote Prutton, via the Yorkshire Evening

“If you are Leeds, then you keep half an eye on that and if he goes then you get the right price for him but you fight tooth and nail to keep him.”

Summerville was the subject of intense transfer speculation during the last summer window following Leeds’ relegation from the Premier League, with Burnley said to offer £20m for his service in August, as per Fabrizio Romano.

However, the winger ultimately stayed and cemented his place as an important part of the first team squad at Elland Road.

This has proven key for the Yorkshire outfit, with the 22-year-old proving a key figure in the side’s push for a promotion place this season.

The gap to seventh place Hull City is nine points, meaning Farke’s team is comfortably inside the play-off places.
