Crysencio Summerville has told LUTV that he is happy at Leeds United right now as he continues to play a key role in Daniel Farke’s side – despite being the subject of a £20m Burnley bid just a few weeks ago.
Summerville, 21, scored his sixth senior goal for Leeds on Wednesday night, his second of the season – as Leeds secured a fourth league win of the season to climb into the top six of the Championship table.
Pocket-sized winger Summerville has been excellent for Leeds this season. even though the stats might not completely show it. His speed, his ability to create, his flair. Leeds need a bit of that in the final third.
Obviously, Summerville could have left in the summer. With many players going and his best mate Willy Gnonto asking to go, Summerville was the subject of a £20m bid from Burnley, as per Fabrizio Romano.
“Of course, I am always happy you know. I am always happy, if I can play football which everyone likes to do, then I am happy,” Summerville told LUTV when asked by Bryn Law if he was happy at Elland Road.
Crysencio Summerville says he is happy at Leeds right now
Summerville could have done what Gnonto did. He could have left like so many others, and pushed for an exit. But like some, Georginio Rutter, he has seen an opportunity in the event of relegation at Leeds.
The chance to break into the side on a regular basis and become a key player – rather than go back to a Premier League club where, like he was at Leeds last season, and be a rotational player. He is excelling.
Summerville is going to score goals this season, and he is going to create them, too. He is happy, he is performing well. An example the grass is not always greener. He and Leeds are perfect for each other.
