Arsenal and Chelsea are among the clubs who have reportedly expressed interest in Leeds United's Crysencio Summerville.
The 22-year-old has been one of the key players for Leeds this season, as they look to make an instant return to the Premier League.
Summerville netted an eye-catching equaliser in 2-2 draw with Watford on Good Friday, adding to his impressive tally this campaign.
The attacking midfielder has scored 16 league goals and registered eight assists, as Daniel Farke's side currently sit in one of the two automatic promotion places in the Championship, alongside leaders Ipswich Town.
Summerville is now pushing for an unlikely spot in the Netherlands' Euro 2024 squad, which could boost his valuation and demand even higher over the summer.

Leeds to consider offers for Summerville this summer?
Transfer journalist Ekrem Konur claims that Arsenal and Chelsea are among a group of five clubs interested in signing Summerville when the window reopens in July.
Top-four favourites Aston Villa are also said to be keeping tabs on the player, along with Crystal Palace, and German club RB Leipzig, who have a knack of identifying young talent across Europe.
Konur states that Leeds would be willing to listen to offers of around €30m (£25.5m) for the Dutchman, who signed for the club from Feyenoord in 2020.
That would provide the club with a huge profit on the player, considering that they bought him for just €1.5m (£1.25m) three-and-a-half years ago.

Summerville's Premier League experience
While only being part of Leeds' youth setup during the 2020-21 season, when the club returned to the top flight after almost two decades away, Summerville became more involved the following campaign.
Being part of first-team squads with regularity saw Summerville make six Premier League appearances in the 2021-22 campaign, before breaking into the side a year later.
Despite relegation from the Premier League last season, Summerville showed plenty of glimpses that caught the eye, including a last-minute winner at Anfield against Liverpool.
Summerville netted four goals for Leeds in 28 appearances, but could not help them avoid the drop, as Everton were the side who survived ahead of them on the final day.
