Why Feyenoord blocked an ‘interesting’ Leeds United reunion in the January transfer window

Crysencio Summerville’s excellent performances for Leeds United in 2023-24 have made him a prominent transfer target.

Arne Slot, Feyenoord’s manager, claimed last month that the club intended to recruit Leeds United talisman Crysencio Summerville.

This season has been a turning point for the winger at Elland Road. An amazing 12 goals and seven assists have helped Leeds kick off a potential promotion push.

Many expected Wilfried Gnonto to shine after relegation, but Summerville has taken the spotlight. However, his form has sparked conjecture about a potential move away.

According to reports from January, Liverpool, where he scored a stoppage-time goal for Leeds last season, is keeping an eye on the issue. The Whites have no pressing need to sell him because he is under contract for another two and a half years.

Slot, the Feyenoord manager, told Voetbal Zone that he intended to bring Summerville back to the Eredivisie. However, due to financial constraints, the 22-year-old was never a viable option, with a market worth of £30 million.

“We have not been able to find a player who strengthens us in attack and was feasible for us,” Slot told reporters. “It’s not hard to discover such a player. I’ve stated it before because I can think of many players like this.
