Brighton and Hove Albion have made a move to sign Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville.

That is according to The Daily Mail, which has reported that Brighton have asked about Summerville.

So, what has been reported about Brighton and Hove Albion, Crysencio Summerville and Leeds United? Let’s take a look.

Brighton and Hove Albion linked with Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville

Well, according to The Daily Mail, Brighton and Hove Albion are interested in signing Crysencio Summerville from Leeds United in the January transfer window.

The report has claimed that Brighton have “asked about” the 22-year-old winger, who cost Leeds £1.3 million in transfer fees when they signed him from Feyenoord in 2020 (The Sun).

My View: Leeds United should not sell Crysencio Summerville

In my opinion, Leeds United should not sell Crysencio Summerville in the January transfer window. Absolutely not.

Leeds are a big club who were playing in the Premier League just a few months ago.

The main objective of the Whites this season is to get back to the top flight of English football, and Summerville is a big player in that quest.

The 22-year-old has established himself as one of the best and most important players in the Leeds team.

Head coach Daniel Farke has noted that the winger has added goals to his game this season.

Summerville has made 20 starts and two substitute appearances in the Championship for Leeds this season.

The Dutch winger has scored 11 goals and given six assists in those matches.

The Whites are fourth in the Championship table at the moment with 45 points from 25 matches. Farke’s side are nine points behind second-placed Ipswich Town.

I believe that Leeds could still end up in the top two and win automatic promotion to the Premier League.
