Kevin Nolan has been blown away by Crysencio Summerville at West Ham United, amid claims Everton are keen to snap him up this summer.
Everton will likely be very busy in the next window, especially if European football has been secured – and that is currently a distinct possibility.
Which of these players do you want to see Everton SIGN in 2026?
The following names have been suggested by fans on TalkingPoints…

The Toffees are just three points off the Champions League places at the moment, and fans are optimistic that the club will be in one of the European competitions next term.
It was recently suggested that Everton will prioritise three positions this summer – a right-back, a centre-back and a forward.
And Crysencio Summerville is a player thought to be on Everton’s radar.
And one man who can certainly vouch for him is Kevin Nolan.

This term, the Hammers have really struggled and at the moment they’re in the thick of a relegation battle.
But they’re only a point away from a safety, and Summerville has been a big reason why they have managed to keep pace with their rivals.

The Dutchman has scored five Premier League goals in 2026 so far, with four of those coming in consecutive games that yielded three victories.
His importance has been underlined by the fact that West Ham have failed to win their last two Premier League games while Summerville has been out injured.
For Kevin Nolan, Summerville has really stood out.
He said on talkSPORT: “Incredible in this run in, and [Jarrod] Bowen on the other side.
“A lot of them have stepped up to the plate, they’re playing in a system now that suits the players and the people who they’ve got in the building.”
David Moyes will value Nolan’s opinion

Clearly West Ham are still very much alive in the relegation battle and Summerville has seemingly given them a fighting chance of staying up.
Nolan, of course, has previously worked with Moyes at West Ham, and the Everton manager is therefore likely to value his former coach’s opinion on players. It may well be that Moyes asks him about Summerville.

Assists – 6
Nolan and Summerville did not overlap at West Ham, with the former leaving a few months before the winger arrived on the scene.
But he’s clearly been watching his former club and will know what Summerville is bringing to the table.
With Tyrique George potentially heading back to Chelsea after his loan, there could well be a need for a new wide player this summer and Summerville is worth keeping an eye on – especially if West Ham go down.
