Manchester United will now have to battle Arsenal to sign winger Crysencio Summerville.
It was revealed last Tuesday that Man United are considering making a £50 million move for West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville.
The Red Devils have already made enquiries about his situation, with the Dutchman widely expected to leave the Hammers following their relegation to the Championship.
According to French outlet Foot Mercato, Arsenal have joined the transfer race for Summerville.
Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham Hotspur are also keeping a close eye on the talented winger.
Summerville endured a frustrating debut season at West Ham after arriving with huge expectations.
2025 was a forgettable year for the winger but he has been in lethal form this year.
All seven goals and five assists he produced for West Ham last season came this year.
The Hammers are under growing pressure to generate funds and balance their finances after relegation.
Summerville is one of their most sellable assets. His stunning goal for the Netherlands against Japan at the World Cup has only increased his reputation and market value.
United are looking to sign a new winger to strengthen their squad.
The return of Champions League football means INEOS must build a squad capable of competing on multiple fronts.
Summerville could represent a smart long-term investment due to his age, experience and untapped potential.
He is only 24 and could further develop his game under manager Michael Carrick.
However, before committing a fee in the region of £50m, United must be absolutely convinced that Summerville can deliver consistently at the highest level.
