Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly in a fierce battle to sign West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville, who has become a hot commodity in the summer transfer window. The Dutch international's future hangs in the balance following West Ham's relegation, potentially forcing the club to sell key players.
Summerville, who impressed at the World Cup with goals against Japan and Sweden, has attracted the attention of several top European clubs. Manchester United are considering him as an attacking reinforcement should Marcus Rashford depart, though West Ham's £50 million asking price is a significant hurdle. United's primary focus, however, remains on bolstering their midfield, with Summerville's teammate Mateus Fernandes identified as their top target.
The interest isn't limited to England. Napoli and AC Milan are keeping tabs on the situation, while Paris Saint-Germain have already initiated contact with West Ham. Reports indicate the French giants are preparing a bid around £43 million and might even explore a combined deal for both Summerville and Fernandes, potentially costing up to £130 million.
Meanwhile, Roma is also a strong contender, appearing ready to meet West Ham's potentially reduced valuation of £30-£40 million. With Roma back in the Champions League and keen to strengthen their squad, Summerville's desire to avoid playing in the Championship makes a move to Italy increasingly probable.
Despite a contract running until 2029, West Ham's financial situation and Summerville's ambition to play at the highest level suggest a transfer is likely. A significant showdown between Manchester United, PSG, and Roma is anticipated in the coming weeks as they vie for the winger's signature.
