Crysencio Summerville transfer news: West Ham and Fulham interested in Leeds winger and Championship Player of the Season | Football News


West Ham and Fulham are interested in Leeds United winger Crysencio Summerville.

The Dutchman is one of a number of forwards West Ham are looking at, while Fulham are also showing initial interest in the 22-year-old.

Initial discussions between West Ham and Leeds have highlighted a big gap in valuations. The Hammers would need the asking price to come down to pursue a deal.

Summerville has entered the final two years of his contract at Elland Road.

The young winger was named Championship Player of the Season after a stellar campaign for Daniel Farke’s Leeds.

Summerville scored 21 goals and registered 10 assists but Leeds lost the Championship play-off final to Southampton.

West Ham in talks over Bayern’s Mazraoui

Latest from Sky Sports News’ Dharmesh Sheth:

West Ham are in talks with Bayern Munich over the signing of right-back Noussair Mazraoui.

The Morocco international has entered the final two years of his contract at Bayern.

Mazraoui is not the only right-back West Ham are looking at.

They retain an interest in Southampton‘s Kyle Walker-Peters and Manchester United‘s Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Who else are West Ham keen on in the transfer window?

West Ham are also interested in Aston Villa forward Jhon Duran and Villarreal‘s Alexander Sorloth, though no formal bids for either striker have been made yet.

West Ham are also playing the waiting game on Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo.

The Hammers agreed a deal with Nice, but the player’s preference is Juventus – who remain in talks with the French club over their own deal.

West Ham are looking at alternative targets, including AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori and Red Bull Salzburg’s Oumar Solet.

United value him at around £15m although wages could be an issue. Both Walker-Peters and Wan-Bissaka are into the final year of their contracts.

Fulham are discussing internally whether to go back in with an improved offer for Fluminense midfielder Andre.

A gap in valuation exists between what the Brazilian club want and what Fulham are prepared to pay. Sky Sports News understands the player is keen on the move and personal terms are not expected to be a problem.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag says Scott McTominay is an important player and they do not want to sell him.

However, Fulham remain interested and are discussing whether to make another approach after having a £17m bid rejected earlier in the window.
