Leeds United quartet Ethan Ampadu, Crysencio Summerville, Wilfried Gnonto and Joe Rodon are all expected to gain interest from Premier League sides going into the summer window, sources have told Football Insider.

Speaking to the new edition of Football Insider’s Insider Track Podcast, transfer correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed that the four young stars will be on the radar of top-flight sides next summer after their exceptional campaigns in the Championship.

It is believed the future of the Whites’ impressive squad hinges on whether they can achieve promotion back to the Premier League as they will find it difficult to convince the stars to stay if they remain in the second tier.

Amapadu, Summerville, Gnonto and Rodon have all thrived under Daniel Farke this season and have become impactful members of the squad.

Leeds United are set to receive offers from Premier League sides for four key stars – especially if they don’t get promoted

Football Insider revealed (9 February) that Leeds are keen to sign Rodon permanently next summer, but a deal is unlikely unless they get promoted.

Spurs will demand up to £15million for the Welshman, and while sources told Football Insider (14 February) that he would be interested in staying at Leeds if they return to the Premier League, he is expected to garner significant interest elsewhere.

Leeds reportedly rejected a £20million offer for Summerville, who has bagged 16 goals in all competitions this season, from Burnley in January.

The club received multiple offers for Gnonto from Everton last summer, while Ampadu’s stock has risen significantly while at Elland Road following an underwhelming loan spell at Sheffield United in 2020-21.

Leeds moved to second in the Championship after their 4-0 victory against Swansea City on Tuesday (13 February), but second-place Southampton have a game in hand.

They are next in action against Plymouth Argyle on Saturday afternoon (17 February).
