Aston Villa have been linked with a swoop for Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville this summer along with fellow Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion, according to a report by Football Insider.

The Holland youth international, who is 22-years-old, has been in fine form in the Championship this season and his current club could face a battle to keep hold of him in the next transfer.

Leeds' chances of keeping hold of him will probably depend on what league they find themselves in next term. They are currently battling it out for promotion from the second tier along with the likes of Ipswich Town, Leicester City and Southampton under the guidance of former Norwich City boss Daniel Farke.

Summerville moved to Elland Road back in 2020 and has since made 78 appearances in all competitions for the Yorkshire club, chipping in with 20 goals, 16 of which have come in this campaign.

Voetbal International reporter Süleyman Öztürk has had this to say on the attacker's situation, as per VI: “He is one of the best forwards in the Championship, from next season we will see him at a top club. He is going to make a transfer, there is no other way.

“I would like to see him at a higher level. He has developed fantastically over the past six months. He is fast and good on the outside, but also as a number ten. I think he should cost around €40m (£34.3m).”

Aston Villa may have to fork out big money to land him.
