As the European Giants enter the race, Leeds United sets a price for their star player.

With 18 goals in all competitions this season, the 22-year-old has emerged as Daniel Farke’s team looks to return to the Premier League right away. With just five games left, he has played a crucial role in their ascent up the ladder since the start of the year, placing them in the running for the Championship crown.

The Netherlands under-21 international’s rise has been astounding. He was patiently waiting for a first team spot after signing from Feyenoord in 2020 for a meager £1.3 million. He made his debut the following year. He played a more prominent role in the Leeds relegation last season, scoring in four straight games towards the end of 2022.

However, this season has been his breakthrough year, drawing interest from several elite teams. According to reports from yesterday, West Ham United, Liverpool, and the Whites were all interested in the winger, but the Whites would reject any approaches. The Whites intend to quell any rumors by signing teammates Archie Gray and Gregg Williams to better salaries.

Summerville is therefore on the shortlist of the seven-time European champions to take the position of the Portuguese international. Leeds, however, has placed a £45 million price tag on the attacker; the amount may vary based on the quantity of bids received.

Following their loss against Coventry City on Saturday, the Yorkshire team dropped to third place in the standings, while Leicester City took the lead once more. Even though the Whites will be trying to maintain pressure when they host Sunderland tomorrow night, the Foxes still have a game to play.
