Serie A giants AS Roma will reportedly look to sign 24-year-old Dutch winger Crysencio Summerville from West Ham United in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Italian outlet Forza Roma, Crysencio Summerville is the subject of interest from AS Roma. The Serie A heavyweights are keen on reinforcing their first-team squad by signing a versatile attacker in the winter transfer window. So, the 24-year-old West Ham United winger has emerged as a target for the Giallorossi.
The Italian club wanted to sign the Dutchman in the winter transfer window, but they failed with an approach to West Ham this month. However, AS Roma will return with a bid in the summer transfer window, hoping to take advantage if the Hammers suffer relegation from the Premier League in the 2025/26 season.
How has Crysencio Summerville fared at West Ham United?
Crysencio Summerville has endured a topsy-turvy ride since joining West Ham United in a deal worth £25 million in August 2024. A native of Rotterdam, the 24-year-old spent his formative years in his homeland, starting his youth career with RVV Noorderkwartier before graduating from the youth division at Feyenoord. However, he rose in prominence during his spell with Leeds United.
West Ham United signed Summerville in August 2024, and he has had to bide his time in the last 18 months. The Dutch winger has grown in form this season, chipping in with three goals and four assists in 19 outings thus far. Meanwhile, the player’s stock remains high, with AS Roma among the prospective suitors vying for his signature this year.
Serie A adventure on the horizon?
AS Roma’s interest in Crysencio Summerville makes sense. The Serie A giants have been combing the market for a versatile attacker heading into the winter transfer window, as they have allowed Leon Bailey to return to Aston Villa this month. Additionally, several attackers have struggled with fitness issues this season.
Several candidates, including Jack Grealish, have thus emerged on AS Roma’s wishlist, even though they have already signed Donyell Malen in the winter transfer window. However, Summerville is also a viable target, although they must wait until the summer to secure the 24-year-old Dutchman’s services.
Other high-profile clubs, including Tottenham Hotspur, have also shown interest in Summerville. However, with West Ham desperate to keep hold of all the top performers in the second half of the 2025/26 season, the Dutch winger’s suitors must wait until the summer to land him.
