Newcastle United have internally considered adding a Leeds United player, West Ham United’s Jarrod Bowen, and a La Liga player ahead of the summer transfer season.
Leeds chairman Paraag Marathe has previously stated that the club will have to sell players this summer to help pay off the credit card debt that the 49ers inherited after succeeding Andrea Radrizzani.
The chances are that Crysencio Summerville will be sold, with Liverpool, Chelsea, Fulham, Bournemouth, and West Ham interested, while Crystal Palace could sign him to replace Michael Olise or Eberechi Eze.
Summerville contributed 31 goals and assists and was named the Championship’s Player of the Season, and the 49ers are asking for a cost between £35 million and £40 million to sign the “ambitious” Netherlands winger.
Now, The Athletic reports that Newcastle are also interested in Summerville as they attempt to add a winger. Eddie Howe’s team has three players on their shortlist this summer.
Summerville is on a three-man shortlist for Newcastle this summer.
Indeed, according to the article, Newcastle has internally considered a move for Summerville, which may take place this summer. The Toon are on a tightrope when it comes to their own financial fairplay.
They will have to sell people as well as buy them, but there is room in the side for a player like Summerville, albeit on the right. Anthony Gordon and Harvey Barnes are great possibilities on the left.
According to The Athletic, Newcastle are not just interested in Summerville, but also in West Ham’s Bowen, Athletic Bilbao, and Spain’s Nico Williams, though Summerville is likely to be the cheapest alternative.
Which team is ideal for Summerville heading into a key summer?
Summerville is increasingly likely to leave Leeds and join a Premier League club this summer. Liverpool and Chelsea are heavily linked, but the competition at both is intense.
He’d struggle to start at Anfield or Stamford Bridge, so Summerville needs to make a good decision. If Willian left Craven Cottage, Fulham would be a good fit for him, while West Ham could use him if Bowen leaves.
Similarly, if Olise or Eze leave Palace, Premier League clubs are interested in the £60 million combination. However, Newcastle may be the best club for Summerville to join, allowing him to start next season.
