6 Leeds Players Premier League Sides Should Sign After Play-off Loss
Leeds United’s defeat in the Championship play-off final to Southampton has left the club facing a summer of upheaval. With significant transfer debt reportedly looming, several star players could be on the move. Here are six players on the books at Elland Road that top-flight sides should look to sign.
Leeds United players who could make the step up to the Premier League
Crysencio Summerville
The man with the coolest name in football should be on the radar of every club in need of a young and dynamic winger. Summerville enjoyed a fine season, and his pace and skill would be an asset to any Premier League side.

Archie Gray
Gray is Leeds through and through, but his performance under the microscope and the Wembley arch on Sunday left a lot to be desired. Still only 18, Gray has time on his side and could benefit from a move to a top-flight club.

Ethan Ampadu
Ampadu’s senior career started at 15 and has taken him to Exeter City, Chelsea, RB Leipzig, Sheffield United, Venezia, Spezia, and Leeds in the eight years since. His experience and versatility would be an asset to any Premier League side.

Dan James
Yep, still knocking about, Dan James would have a long career as a wrestling jobber who gets flung about like a boomerang, such is his penchant for winning hard fouls. His pace and power would be an asset to any Premier League side.

Wilfried Gnonto
When Leeds were relegated, it seemed for all the world that Wilfried Gnonto would not follow them to the Championship. Gnonto could return to transfer gossip columns this summer, and his pace and skill would be an asset to any Premier League side.

Georginio Rutter
Should Leeds have spent a precious £35m on Georginio Rutter in January 2023 when they desperately needed a more proven forward? Rutter found his feet this year, and his pace and power would be an asset to any Premier League side.
