Leeds United youngster 'could be Raphinha replacement against Liverpool'

Crysencio Summerville could reportedly make his first-team debut for Leeds United in Sunday's Premier League clash with Liverpool at Elland Road.

The 19-year-old, who joined the Whites from Feyenoord in 2020, is yet to make his first-team bow for the club but has impressed at Under-23 level, scoring eight times and contributing seven assists.

As it stands, Leeds will be without the services of Raphinha this weekend due to a FIFA-imposed suspension relating to him missing Brazil's fixtures during the international break.

New signing Daniel James is in contention to replace Raphinha, but according to LeedsLive, head coach Marcelo Bielsa could look to Summerville.

The report claims that the teenager has an 'outside chance' of making his debut against Liverpool, with Bielsa reluctant to start new signings - such as James - in the early stages of their time at the club.

Summerville, who largely operates as a right-sided attacker, has scored six times in five appearances for Netherlands Under-19s.
