Chelsea and Liverpool have reportedly enquired about 22-year-old Dutch attacker Crysencio Summerville but face stiff competition from PSG for the Leeds United star.
According to a report by Mike Verweij of De Telegraaf, Crysencio Summerville is the subject of interest from Paris Saint-Germain. The Ligue 1 champions have been scouring the market for an offensive reinforcement heading into the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the Dutchman is also a target for Chelsea and Liverpool, with the two Premier League clubs enquiring about the Leeds United talisman.
Crysencio Summerville and his rise at Leeds United
Crysencio Summerville has become a hot property in the market after a scintillating 2023/24 campaign with Leeds United. The 22-year-old was a standout performer for the Whites but could not help them return to the Premier League a year after they suffered relegation from the top flight.
The Dutchman contributed to 31 goals in 49 appearances across all competitions by finding the back of the net 21 times and providing 10 assists. Meanwhile, Summerville’s exploits have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, including Chelsea, Liverpool, and Paris Saint-Germain.
A man in demand
The report has claimed that Chelsea and Liverpool have submitted enquiries for the Dutch attacker. The West London club might part ways with Noni Madueke and Raheem Sterling in the summer transfer window. So, Summerville has emerged as a viable target for the Blues.
Meanwhile, Liverpool’s interest in Crysencio Summerville is understandable. With Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah’s long-term futures uncertain, the Reds should prepare for the worst, bringing the Leeds United attacker into the picture. However, Chelsea and Liverpool face stiff competition from PSG for the 22-year-old Dutchman.
PSG will delve into the market for multiple attackers to fill the void left by the departure of Kylian Mbappe, who has joined Real Madrid. So, Summerville has emerged as a viable target, with the Dutch attacker having the potential and productivity to make his mark at PSG.
With Chelsea and Liverpool making the first moves, PSG must step up and contact Leeds United to discuss a move for Summerville. A summer departure should be on the cards after the Whites failed to return to the Premier League despite having their fate in their hands.
