The summer transfer window is not open yet but clubs are already starting to firm up their plans
Leeds United know that should they fail to win promotion to the Premier League with a victory in Sunday's Championship play-off final against Southampton, they'll have clubs circling their best talent within hours of the final whistle at Wembley.
One club who do appear to have firmly fixed their gaze on Summerville is Liverpool. With fellow Dutchman Arne Slot taking over from Jurgen Klopp at Anfield, a move for his countryman has always been an easy step to make. However, reports now suggest Liverpool are ready to firm up their interest after opting against a move for Newcastle United's England international Anthony Gordon.
The Magpies need to move on some players this summer in order to comply with financial fair play rules if they are to strengthen their squad with new additions, but Gordon is not a player they want to sell. As such Eddie Howe's team have slapped a price of at least £100m on Gordon, who has been impressive at St James' Park this season.
