West Ham United agreement in place for Crysencio Summerville – Fabrizio Romano
West Ham United have agreed personal terms with Crysencio Summerville over a move from Leeds United, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The journalist shared via his personal X account on Wednesday (31 July) that the Leeds attacker wants to make the switch to London Stadium.
Negotiations are now ongoing between the Irons and Championship side Leeds over a fee for the Netherlands Under-21s international.
West Ham close to pulling off huge summer transfer coup
Hammers fans have grown frustrated in recent weeks at hearing numerous targets named but no players officially joining.
Should the club get a deal over the line for Summerville, however, then Tim Steidten will deserve a huge tap on the back.
Summerville was the best player in England’s second tier last season and is more than capable of thriving back in the Premier League.
Indeed, it was not long ago that the Dutchman was described as “incredible” by former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha.
Summerville will slot in nicely out wide at London Stadium and, with the additional of that elusive prolific centre-forward, will help make the Hammers’ attack one of the best in the top flight.
Of course, nothing is yet official – and Hammers fans will be all too quick to point that out – but the fact Summerville wants to join is a massive boost.
Let’s just hope Steidten can now negotiate a fee with Leeds, who are not under any serious pressure to cash in after the big-money sale of Archie Gray to Tottenham.
