There have been few more uplifting sights in recent weeks than watching Crysencio Summerville terrorise opposing defences and rediscover his form, registering four goals and one assist so far in 2026. The former Leeds United winger has endured a difficult spell with injuries, missing significant portions of last season and going through a long recovery process.
Naturally, his improved end product combined with his trademark explosive pace has not gone unnoticed. According to givemesport.com, West Ham turned down two bids for Summerville in January, suggesting that while the club managed to keep hold of their star in the short term, potential issues could arise later on:
“West Ham rejected two offers for Crysencio Summerville during the January transfer window, and although he was content to remain for the rest of the season, Fabrizio Romano believes the situation will change in the summer.”
That assessment seems realistic. Should the Hammers suffer relegation, Summerville — along with Jarrod Bowen — is likely to attract strong interest from rival clubs.
Leeds United could also benefit financially from his impressive form in 2026. Reports from Dutch media indicate that a call-up to the Netherlands national team in March is expected, which would activate add-on clauses in his transfer agreement between West Ham and Leeds. Some sources suggest that chairman David Sullivan may have to pay as much as £4 million to Summerville’s former club — who are coincidentally also competing with West Ham in the relegation battle.
