Leeds United’s Crysencio Summerville has opened up about the rumors linking him with other clubs, admitting that it’s a confidence boost to hear his name in the mix. The 22-year-old winger has been a standout performer for the Whites this season, contributing 15 goals and eight assists in the Championship under Daniel Farke’s guidance.
Despite interest from Premier League sides like Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Brighton during the January transfer window, no concrete offers materialized. Summerville emphasized that while he acknowledges the speculation, his primary focus remains on helping Leeds secure promotion back to the Premier League.
In an interview with Voetbal Primeur, Summerville stated, “I receive bits and pieces from friends and family about transfer rumors, but I try not to let it distract me. It’s reassuring to know that my performances are being recognized, but my priority is getting Leeds back to where they belong.”
Having already tasted Premier League football, Summerville expressed his admiration for the league and his desire to return. However, his future at Elland Road could hinge on Leeds’ promotion push. With the team currently enjoying an eight-game winning streak and sitting second in the Championship, the prospect of returning to the top flight is becoming increasingly likely.
As the season reaches its climax, Leeds fans will be hoping for a successful promotion campaign that will not only secure their place in the Premier League but also convince Summerville to commit his future to the club.
