Leeds fans expect Summerville to go after what they saw v Harrogate
Leeds United fans are expecting Crysencio Summerville to leave the club this summer after he started their opening pre-season friendly on the bench.
Daniel Farke’s side ran out 3-0 winners against Harrogate Town thanks to goals from Junior Firpo, Georginio Rutter and youngster Sam Chambers.
However, despite the emphatic win on the return to club football, fans noted the absence of both Summerville and Wilfried Gnonto from the starting lineup.
Both wingers have been heavily linked with moves away from Elland Road this summer, and the decision not to start them in the first game has set theories spinning.
Fans flooded social media to suggest they had been left out due to impending transfers, with one saying they “may as well announce them leaving now”.
