West Ham finally agree Crysencio Summerville exit - where that leaves Nuno Espirito Santo
West Ham United are close to selling Crysencio Summerville to AS Roma.
The Serie A club are expected to get a deal over the line for the Netherlands international this transfer window.
After the Hammers' relegation, they were expected to lose some of their key players, and the 24-year-old is one of them.
Nuno Espirito Santo is set to navigate the Championship at London Stadium without Summerville.
The Portuguese manager is tasked with winning immediate promotion to the Premier League.
With the winger on his way to Italy, the Irons are set to make a decent profit as they navigate apparent financial challenges.
How much Roma will pay for Crysencio Summerville
Summerville's move to Roma is nearing completion after a stellar World Cup campaign.
The winger, who the Hammers signed for an initial £25million fee, was also in impressive form under Nuno in the second half of the season.
GS Channel sports journalist Attilio Malena has claimed that the deal for the attacker is "done".
According to Sportitalia reporter Alfredo Pedulla on 21 July, the Italian club will pay around £42.5m for the Dutchman.
Roma first made contact with Summerville's camp towards the end of May and after two months, the move is set to materialise.
Nuno Espirito Santo's attacking options assessed at London Stadium
West Ham Zone have covered reports of The Friedkin Group wanting Summerville at Roma, who are hoping to sign him as soon as possible.
Now that the forward is on his way out, Nuno is left with a difficult decision — whether to rely on the untested Keiber Lamadrid or sign a replacement left-winger.
Maxwell Cornet is also back at the Hammers, but it will be interesting to see whether the Portuguese manager gives him an opportunity.
Jarrod Bowen seems to have committed his future at London Stadium for now, which will come as a big boost for Nuno, but it will be interesting to see which left-winger he will rely on.
