Exclusive: Liverpool has talked about bringing in a winger who has scored 30 goals.
Liverpool is aiming to bolster their winger options in the summer transfer window, and with Arne Slot joining Anfield, they have set their sights on Leeds United’s Crysencio Summerville. Despite having various forward options, Liverpool is preparing for the potential departure of Mohamed Salah, whose contract expires in 2025, by seeking replacements. While Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon was previously linked with Liverpool, transfer expert Ben Jacobs has refuted this claim, asserting that Liverpool is not pursuing Gordon. However, Summerville, who has had an impressive season in the Championship with 20 goals and 10 assists in 47 games for Leeds, is being seriously considered by Liverpool. Although Leeds might struggle to retain Summerville, it remains to be seen if Liverpool will secure his services, with discussions ongoing as they finalize their transfer targets for the summer. Summerville’s willingness to initially accept a rotational role before potentially becoming a starter aligns well with Liverpool’s plans, but the cost of acquiring him and Liverpool’s official move before the 2024/25 season are yet to be determined.
