Leeds United latest: Summerville Brighton/Newcastle updates, Struijk valuation, Harrison Burrows talk
Leeds United ended the regular season third in the Championship and lost in the play-off final, meaning Daniel Farke’s side are looking at rebuilding the side for the 2024/25 campaign.
Archie Gray has left the club, alongside other fringe players or loaned out players such as Marc Roca and Kristoffer Klaesson, whilst Joe Rodon has come the other way from Tottenham Hotspur.
Alex Cairns became their latest signing this week, but there is bound to be far more in the way of both incomings and outgoings.
Interest is expected in many of the first-team squad, but Leeds fans can remain optimistic about what the new season holds, with Rodon the statement of intent so far in the transfer market.
However, in the meantime, we have taken a look at some of the latest news and biggest headlines coming out of the club.
Crysencio Summerville latest amid Brighton and Newcastle interest
Brighton are no longer in the running to sign Crysencio Summerville from Leeds, according to TEAMtalk. They are reporting that the Seagulls are out of the chase to sign the Dutchman this summer from the Championship side.
It was previously reported that the Premier League club were in talks to sign the 22-year-old, with Liverpool and Chelsea also interested. However, they are now looking elsewhere.
Not only that, but it has been reported that West Ham United’s Jarrod Bowen is Newcastle United’s top winger target this summer, ahead of the likes of Summerville.
That’s according to Scott Wilson of The Northern Echo, who claims a “major move” for the England international is planned for later in the transfer window despite long-standing interest in Leeds’ star winger. The latest updates will provide Leeds fans with a glimmer of hope of retaining Summerville.
Pascal Struijk’s valuation
Serie A side Torino are said to be eying up a summer move for centre-back Pascal Struijk this summer, and Carlton Palmer believes the Whites should demand around £15-20 million for the Dutchman.
Struijk joined the club’s academy from Ajax in 2018, but could be set for his first move away from the club, according to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
Speaking exclusively to Football League World, Palmer reacted to the story. He said: “It is reported that Torino are eyeing a move for Leeds United central defender Pascal Struijk.
“It’s been reported that Leeds may have to raise a possible £100 million to comply with the EFL’s financial rules and regulations.
