In the near future, Summerville is likely to leave West Ham after this team was relegated to the Premier League last season. The Dutch player joined West Ham from Leeds United for an initial fee of £25 million in 2024 and quickly became one of the rare bright spots of the team.
Last season, Summerville scored 5 goals and had 2 assists in the Premier League. Although West Ham faced many difficulties, this winger still showed his ability to create breakthroughs thanks to speed, personal technique and handling in one-on-one situations.
Arsenal are considering Summerville as an option to upgrade the left winger position. Mikel Arteta's team wants to add another player capable of making a difference on the wing, especially in the context that they need more depth to compete in many arenas.
Summerville mainly plays on the left wing in West Ham's colors last season, but can also play on the opposite wing. This versatility is considered one of the reasons Arsenal are interested.
Meanwhile, Manchester United has also approached West Ham about the possibility of recruiting Summerville. The Old Trafford team is looking for new options for the attack. Now, coach Carrick's Red Devils need another fast, penetrating winger to serve the new playing style.
According to European press, not only Arsenal and Man United, but also Tottenham, Aston Villa and Paris Saint-Germain are also monitoring Summerville's situation. The price that West Ham wants is about 50 million pounds.
Currently, Arsenal is still monitoring other wing targets such as Club Brugge's Christos Tzolis and Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers, but Summerville is considered one of the most notable options.
