Details on crucial Crysencio Summerville clause as West Ham United reach key transfer milestone

Crysencio Summerville's West Ham United exit has reached the decisive hours.

Roma have been making a push for the London Stadium man this week, and it seems like a conclusion could be on the cards very soon.

It is unlikely that the Dutch winger is willing to play in the Championship next season.

West Ham Zone has shared regular updates on the Italian side's pursuit of Summerville.

Now, new details of a clause have emerged that could be pivotal in a potential exit.

It has also put a ticking clock on the deal, meaning that the Serie A side have a deadline.

What is the clause that could accelerate Crysencio Summerville's West Ham exit?

Summerville has a release clause, and it is understood that there is a limited time before it expires.

Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla claimed on Sunday that it is worth less than £42.5million.

He stated that a decision must be made to pay the clause in 48 hours, otherwise talks will start from scratch, so it is a crucial day.

The Giallorossi are said to have already reached an agreement with the 24-year-old on wages.

Why Summerville exit needs to be wrapped up quickly

Summerville's sale should help the Hammers to start bringing in new players relatively quickly.

They have not brought anyone in yet, which is not ideal preparation for the upcoming campaign in the Championship.

That is why they will hope that the deal is completed within the 48 hour timeframe, so Nils Koppen can get to work.

It is vital that they start adding to Nuno Espirito Santo's squad imminently, so that the new players are ready to make an immediate impact in the second tier.

It will be sad to see the winger depart as he was not the reason for relegation, as he produced five goals and four assists in the league.

However, it is necessary, as the Irons need to make sales in order to balance their books.

Therefore, an exit makes sense for all parties, and it should be wrapped up as soon as possible.

There is no sense in holding on and negotiating for a higher fee as the Italians will surely not be willing to pay over the odds, when they could have just got him for the release clause.
