Roma are still interested in making a move for West Ham United ace Crysencio Summerville.

The Netherlands international is facing an uncertain future at London Stadium after the Hammers were relegated from the Premier League.

Manchester United have been most prominently linked, though the likes of Paris Saint-Germain, Aston Villa, and Fulham have been noted with an interest.

Summerville's future was put on the backburner while he competed at the World Cup, but the Oranje's last-32 exit has exacerbated rumours on his future.

Serie A giants Roma were previously credited with an interest last month, and Summerville is seemingly still on their radar.

A development elsewhere has brought Summerville back on Roma's radar, but it could be complicated by two major factors.

What's the latest with Roma's interest in Crysencio Summerville?

It is fast becoming a matter of when not if Summerville heads for the London Stadium exit door this summer.

The main question, though, is where he will play, especially given Man United's interest is largely dependent on whether they sell Marcus Rashford.

Italian outlet Romagiallorossa.it reports that Roma are looking at Summerville as an alternative after they missed out on Mason Greenwood.

The former Manchester United striker had been on the Giallorossi's radar, but he is closing on a move to Fenerbahce.

Roma opted not to proceed due to Marseille's pricetag, and the high demands from Greenwood's entourage over personal terms.

However, the report adds that Roma's move for Summerville is also complicated by West Ham's asking price for the 24-year-old.

Additionally, the strong competition from the Premier League, where the money on offer is higher, is also proving an obstacle.

Who else could leave West Ham United this summer?

Mateus Fernandes has already brought in around £85million following his sale to Tottenham this summer.

Summerville looks likely to be one of the next out the door, but the rumours of who could leave have not ended there.

Jean-Clair Todibo is drawing interest from Marseille, and not many would be sad to see the centre-back depart.

However, losing captain Jarrod Bowen would represent a significant blow, and he is drawing interest from Everton and Aston Villa.

Full-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka is also on the radar of top-flight clubs, most notably Premier League champions Arsenal.
