Arne Slot simply has to make 'sensational' 20-goal EFL star his first signing at Liverpool - opinion

Liverpool’s soon-to-be manager Arne Slot should consider launching a bid for an EFL whizz this summer transfer window.

With Jurgen Klopp set to end his illustrious career on Merseyside, Feyernoord’s Slot is the rumoured man ready to take the reigns at Anfield.

The Dutchman will already be assessing where to strengthen in the fast-approaching window and he should consider a move for a ‘sensational’ wide player who has been on fire this term.

Liverpool should try to sign Crycencio Summerville

Crysencio Summerville has enjoyed a phenomenal season for Leeds United and has been crowned the Championship Player of the Year.

The ‘sensational’ 22-year-old has netted 20 goals across all competitions this season whilst laying on 10 assists.

Only Southampton’s Adam Armstrong and Blackburn Rovers’ Sammie Szmodics outscored him in the league, which is a brilliant feat for a winger.

Liverpool are desperately in need of a goalscorng winger to share the load with Mohamed Salah and Summerville could be the ideal candidate.

Since Sadio Mane’s departure to Bayern Munich in 2022, The Reds have really struggled to find a suitable replacement, with Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo not quite having the desired impact.

Given Summerville’s age, he has plenty of time to develop and reach that level under Slot’s stewardship.

The cost of Crysencio Summerville

Indeed, this deal massively depends on Leeds’ playoff campaign, as they still have the chance to secure promotion to the Premier League.

So the transfer would likely only happen if they remain in the Championship and at that point, The Whites would want around £45m for Summerville, according to Football Transfers.

A telling couple of weeks await.
