West Ham must keep Crysencio Summerville at all costs after ‘tremendous’ World Cup scenes

West Ham's stance on a Crysencio Summerville exit should be obvious after his World Cup exploits.

The Hammers ace scored the second goal for the Netherlands in their 2-2 draw with Japan on Sunday evening.

Virgil van Dijk had put the Dutch in the lead, but the Blue Samurai equalised twice through Keito Nakamura and Daichi Kamada.

Summerville has attracted interest from the likes of AS Roma, Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham.

However, Nuno Espirito Santo's side must hold firm and keep him at the London Stadium.

The latest scenes on international duty prove that they can't afford to lose him, even if they need to raise £150million this summer.

Crysencio Summerville praised for Netherlands scenes

Summerville's effort was a stunning one, as he cut in a curled an effort past the goalkeeper from just inside of the box.

The strike left former Rangers striker Ally McCoist, who was on commentary for ITV, stunned.

Speaking after the goal, he labelled it as an “excellent finish, absolutely tremendous finish".

Why Summerville's showing proves West Ham should keep him

Summerville was on the pitch for 70 minutes, and he made his impact just six minutes earlier.

It was his only effort of the game, from a total expected goals margin of just 0.02, per Fotmob.

He was dangerous throughout the contest, though, with three touches in the opposition box and two passes into the final third.

He also helped out defensively, making one recovery and winning four of the six ground duels that he contested , for a 67 per cent success rate.

Those figures show exactly why the Hammers need to keep hold of the former Leeds man, as he can create something out of nothing and is willing to track back.

That will be vital in the Championship, as there will be moments where the Irons need a moment of magic, and the Dutchman could be the one to provide it.

He will have hoped that it would have been the winner, but it was still an important goal in a high pressure moment, and the E20 outfit will have a lot of those next season.

If they are to make an immediate return to the Premier League, having the 24-year-old as a part of the squad will make that a lot easier to achieve.
