The 21-year-old is one of the many Leeds players to have been linked with an exit during the current window. However, he has remained at Elland Road and featured in the recent Carabao Cup defeat to Salford City.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Leeds rejected the Burnley offer “out of hand”.

“Leeds rejected the offer out of hand. No chance.”

There have been widespread reports of Premier League interest in Leeds widemen, with Summerville’s teammates Wilfried Gnonto and Luis Sinisterra also named as transfer targets for top flight clubs in recent weeks.

However, in the dying embers of the window, Leeds still have all three on the books.
