Crysencio Jilbert Sylverio Cirro Summerville (born 30 October 2001) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a winger for EFL Championship club Leeds United.

Club career

Feyenoord

Born in Rotterdam to Afro-Surinamese parents, Summerville played youth football at RVVV Noorderkwartier before joining the Feyenoord academy in 2008.[3][4] In March 2018, he signed his first professional contract with Feyenoord; a contract lasting until the summer of 2021.[5]

On 12 December 2018, he joined FC Dordrecht on loan until the end of the 2018–19 season.[6] He made his Eerste Divisie debut for Dordrecht on 13 January 2019 in a game against Den Bosch, as a 70th-minute substitute for Oussama Zamouri.[7] On 29 January 2019, he made his starting eleven debut for the club, scoring his first goal as a professional footballer in the sixth minute.[8]

In August 2019, he joined fellow Eredivisie side ADO Den Haag on loan.[9] He made his debut for the club on 31 August 2019 in a 1–0 win against VVV Venlo in a 1–0 victory.[10] On 26 October 2019, he scored his first Eredivisie goal for ADO Den Haag on 26 October 2019 in a 2–0 win against Vitesse Arnhem, becoming the youngest goalscorer for the club in the Eredivisie.[11] He impressed for the club during his spell, scoring two goals and gained three assists for the side.[12]

He returned to Feyenoord at the end of his loan spell ahead of the 2020–21 Eredivisie season, with Voetbal International reporting on 17 August 2020 that Summerville had turned down a new extended contract offer at Feyenoord.[13]

Leeds United

On 16 September 2020, Summerville joined Leeds United for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-year contract.[14]

He made his debut on 17 September 2021 against Newcastle United, in the Premier League, coming on for Raphinha in the 67th minute.[15]

In August 2022 Summerville agreed a new contract at Leeds until 2026.[16]

On 23 October 2022, Summerville scored his first Premier League goal in a 3–2 defeat against Fulham at Elland Road.[17] On 29 October, he scored the winning goal in the 89th minute in a 2–1 victory over Liverpool, making it his club's first win at Anfield since April 2001, simultaneously ending Liverpool's 29-game unbeaten streak at home in the Premier League.[18] On 5 November 2022, he scored another late winning goal to give Leeds a come-from-behind 4–3 win at home against Bournemouth.[19] His goal in Leeds’ 4–3 away loss at Tottenham Hotspur on 12 November brought Summerville's league tally to four goals in four consecutive games, as the Premier League went on hiatus for the World Cup.[20] However, Summerville did not find the net again in either the league or the cup for the remainder of the season and found himself often substituted or, when not in the starting XI, coming on usually as a direct second-half replacement for Brenden Aaronson.

Summerville scored a brace in an eight-minute spell at Carrow Road in a late-in-the-game 3–2 win on 21 October 2023. This was the first time since May 2021 that Leeds had had three victories in a row and moved them up to third in the Championship.[21] He followed this up seven days later with another pair of goals, both scored in the first half, in the team’s 4–1 home victory over Huddersfield.[22]

International career

Born in the Netherlands, Summerville is of Surinamese descent.[23] He won the 2018 UEFA European Under-17 Championship with the Netherlands national under-17 football team, scoring a goal in the group game against Germany and appearing as a substitute in the final against Italy.[24]
