Six Championship stars who could be snapped up by Premier ...

Leeds United will remain in the Championship next season after losing the play-off final - and some of their top stars, alongside those from other clubs, will be targeted by the Premier League

The line-up for the 2024/25 Championship season is now complete after Southampton sealed their return to the Premier League on Sunday.

The Saints' victory against Leeds United in the play-off final means Daniel Farke's side will join 23 other teams when the new Championship season kicks off in August.

Once Leeds are over the anguish of Sunday's Wembley defeat, they will be forced to negotiate a summer transfer window where some of their biggest and brightest stars are likely to be targeted by top-flight clubs.

But it's not just Leeds who are likely to have key players targeted by Premier League teams this summer. Here, Mirror Football predicts six Championship stars who could be on the move in the coming months...

Fresh from being named the Championship Player of the Season, Summerville will have no shortage of suitors in the wake of Leeds' failure to win promotion.

Summerville amassed 19 goals and nine assists throughout the course of the season and a host of top clubs have already been linked with the Dutchman, including Liverpool.

Leeds will want to keep the nucleus of their squad together after coming so close to winning promotion and interest in other players could complicate a potential move away for Summerville - but that won't stop clubs from trying to lure him away.

Join the debate! Who do you think Premier League clubs will target from the Championship? Let us know here.

Much like Summerville, Rowe has had a season to remember after establishing himself at Norwich City. The talented winger, 21, registered 17 goal contributions in 38 appearances in his first full season in senior football, along with a number of eye-catching displays.

Already the likes of West Ham and Wolves have been credited with an interest in the England Under-21 star, who could wind up in the Premier League without Norwich, who failed to make it through the play-offs.

After struggling to make a name for himself at Tottenham, Clarke has evolved into one of the Championship's most dangerous wingers at Sunderland.

Clarke, 23, plundered 15 goals this season and was the subject of interest from the Premier League and abroad back in the January transfer window.

Sunderland, who failed to make the play-offs this term, are still without a permanent head coach after sacking Michael Beale back in February - and top-flight clubs could try to take advantage by swooping for Clarke in the coming weeks.

With Leeds likely to be inundated with offers for some of their top stars, it feels inevitable that Gnonto will once again have Premier League interest.

The 20-year-old submitted a transfer request last summer after a transfer to Everton failed to materialise following Leeds' relegation from the Premier League.

And while Gnonto hasn't racked up numbers which are quite in the same vein as Summerville, the Italian forward is likely to be pursued again after Leeds failed to escape the Championship.

As one of the classiest centre-backs outside the Premier League, it's no surprise that Greaves is already being lined up by top-flight clubs.

The Hull City academy graduate played a big role in the Tigers' play-off push but is expected to move on amid interest from West Ham.

It would take a substantial transfer fee to sign the 23-year-old, who was named in the Championship Team of the Season last month, but that won't put off suitors.

Whittaker enjoyed his best-ever season after joining Plymouth Argyle on a permanent basis last summer. The former Swansea forward, 23, played a pivotal role in keeping Argyle in the Championship but it remains to be seen if the Pilgrims, now bossed by Wayne Rooney, will be able to retain Whittaker's services.

Their 19-goal leading marksman was reportedly the subject of interest from Lazio in January and his red-hot form will not have gone unnoticed by Premier League clubs.
