Crysencio Summerville is edging ever closer to quitting West Ham United for Al-Hilal.

The Netherlands winger has been linked with the London Stadium exit door throughout the transfer window.

Manchester United had originally been strongly linked with his signature, though Marcus Rashford's situation was intrinsically linked to their interest.

More recently, Serie A side Roma emerged as leading contenders, and they reportedly held talks with the 24-year-old's representatives last week.

However, Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal arrived with a deal that completely gazumped the competition.

Now, eye-watering details have been shared about the sort of numbers Summerville will make with the Saudi Arabian outfit.

How much will Crysencio Summerville earn at Al-Hilal?

West Ham Zone previously covered reports that the formalities were complete for Summerville to quit West Ham for Al-Hilal.

Al-Hilal have secured a deal that could eventually be worth £65million for the Hammers, with £55m of that set to paid up front.

Sky Sport Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has now provided a new update sharing just how much Summerville is set to earn in Saudi.

According to Plettenberg, Summerville will make roughly £14.5million (€17m) net per year in the Saudi Pro League.

Over the course of his contract, which he says will run until 2030, that will see Summerville earn a net £58m (£65m).

Plettenberg added that an official announcement for Summerville's move is expected soon.

Could anyone else leave West Ham this summer?

West Ham's relegation from the Premier League meant it was inevitable that there would be player sales this summer.

Mateus Fernandes was sold to Tottenham Hotspur for £85m, now Summerville is on his way for big cash too.

It means that West Ham are now in a good position when it comes to negotiations for any further exits.

Jean-Clair Todibo surely has no future at the club, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka is attracting plenty of interest elsewhere.

There is hope that captain Jarrod Bowen will now stay, though, which would be a huge boost as the Hammers attempt to get out of the Championship at the first attempt.
