Manchester United have opened talks to sign another West Ham star alongside Mateus Fernandes, according to The Athletic's David Ornstein.

The Red Devils have been pushing to secure the signature of Fernandes during the summer transfer window as they look to revamp their current midfield options.

Casemiro left the club following the expiration of his contract this summer, meaning United are looking to bring in at least one midfielder.

They will also be hoping to reinforce other areas of the pitch, especially after qualifying for the Champions League last season.

Michael Carrick needs to add more depth, competition and quality to his squad to deal with the extra fixtures and the better quality of opposition they will be facing.

According to Ornstein, Manchester United are paying serious attention to West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville ahead of the summer transfer window.

It is claimed that United have opened talks about his situation with the Hammers, and they are aware that he is expected to cost in the region of £50 million.

Any move could depend on the future of Marcus Rashford after Barcelona opted against activating his €30m buy option following his season-long loan.

The report also claims that talks are advancing for Manchester United to sign Fernandes so they could try to secure a double deal to raid West Ham this summer.

Summerville Destined to Leave West Ham

Crysencio Summerville

Summerville, like Fernandes, is destined to leave West Ham in the upcoming summer transfer window.

The Dutch winger is currently starring at the World Cup and scored in their opening game of the tournament.

West Ham were recently relegated from the Premier League, so there is little chance that Summerville will want to continue plying his trade in the Championship.

With clubs like Manchester United showing an interest, there is certainly going to be a route back to the Premier League for Summerville, and it feels incredibly unlikely that he will be playing in the second tier.
