In their pursuit of promotion to the Premier League, Leeds United would find Jonathan Rowe to be a “sensational” acquisition.
Don Goodman, a commentator for Sky Sports, has made that determination as the Whites press on to sign the Norwich City player.
According to reports in the national media today, United is moving closer to paying the Canaries what the forward is worth. The 21-year-old has been linked to replace Crysencio Summerville after he was a star performer in the Championship the previous season, helping City advance to the play-offs. Summerville, a talented forward, transferred to West Ham United last weekend for a fee of £25 million plus add-ons.
According to early reports, United was prepared to make Rowe an initial bid of £7 million, which is reportedly far less than Norwich’s asking price. The two sides are reportedly in talks, and according to Sky Sports, the Whites are willing to up their offer in an effort to wrest the England Under-21 international away from Carrow Road.
Grosvenor Sport was informed by EFL commentator Goodman that Crycensio Summerville’s price is intriguing. I believe you might conclude that he is worth more than that if you took a look at his performance from last season, excluding the final eight or nine games or whatever. However, given how his season ended, you can’t shake the nagging notion that teams would have been hesitant to go above £25 million.
He might end up being worth far less or far more than that. It is yet to be determined. Of course, West Ham United and the entire globe were aware that Leeds United most likely needed to bring in some cash. The sale of Archie Gray would have been beneficial, but this will allow Leeds United to spend some money on quality additions. You tell me that John Rowe has been linked, and I have no doubt that he would be a fantastic addition to the team and a very capable replacement for Summerville.
United’s first Championship matchup this weekend is against the recently promoted Portsmouth team. Last time around, they finished third and, although scoring 90 points, were not automatically promoted on the last day. In the play-off final at Wembley, Southampton outperformed the Whites, sending them back to play in the English Second Division for another season.
Even though important players like Glen Kamara, Archie Gray, and Summerville left this summer, Goodman believes United is still the club to defeat. “I’ve got to go with Leeds United as champions,” he stated.
“I’ve never seen a better top four than the four that finished as a group last season instead of as individual teams. In regards to Burnley, Luton, and Sheffield United, I don’t think it will be at the same level this season. Since Joe Rothwell is a new kind of midfielder, I like him, and I think there will be more acquisitions in the future. signatures that are of a high caliber. You have someone who’s been there, seen it, had the t-shirt, and almost pulled it off last season in Daniel Farke. Leeds United to win the Championship, I would have to say.”
