West Ham fans can expel a huge sigh of relief, having been kept in a state of high alert ever since the prospect of signing the Championship’s player of the season arose last week. In a move which brings plaudits for The Irons from across both supporters and news commentators, in-the-know journalist ‘Ex West Ham employee’ has broken the news that Crysencio Summerville has just signed a five year contract with West Ham United..
Unveiling will no doubt take place shortly on the official West Ham United Club Web site.
Knowing the club as we do, and well knowing that these transfer deals aren’t ‘done’ until the player is actually spotted in the media shoot making the ‘crossed Hammers’ with his arms, supporters can now enjoy the capture of one of footballs’ brightest up and coming stars.
Just 22, a dynamic right footed left sided player, Rotterdam- born Summerville will complete West Ham’s left side and fill the position which The Hammers have found most difficult in recent years. Despite drafting in Said Benrahma, Pablo Fornals, Maxwell Cornet and Lucas Paquetá , the Irons had not found way of replicating the the free flowing fast attacking play which has been on show at times on the opposite flank with Bowen and Kudus operating in exciting style.
Now the mouth watering prospect of Summerville, Kudus and Bowen operating as a creative, mobile, fast and dangerous attacking trio is a reality. Add Paqueta to the mix pulling the strings in midfield and whichever striker is deployed, West Ham United have a truly dynamic, attacking and very exciting group of talent to call upon.
With the signings expected to come thick and fast, we’re looking forward to the coming weeks and the new season beginning the Lopetegui era in earnest.
Feeling better now?
Marvellous, this kid will drive our left side⚒️⚒️👍
Very excited to see if he can do for us what Kudus does on the right, if Lopetegui can also get some defensive output from him because imho Emerson isn’t a great defender so will need some support.
Well done board and Steidten COYI !!!
Lost for words, what a great signing.
We’re not just adding players we’re adding class?
I can’t wait to see him pair up with Kudus and Bowen, we’re going to terrorise teams….
COYI’s ⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️
Brilliant signing! At 22 years of age it shows that we are getting the right blend of youth and experience considering the impending signings of Rodriguez and Fullkrug. A blend that will hopefully drive us towards the European places this coming season.
with guido signing i can’t find room for summerville lol
Great signing , look forward to seeing him, we really need AWB
Not felt this excited for a new season for a long time! Fantastic addition to our attack hopefully with Fullkrug as the fulcrum we are going to be excellent going forward. Still need AWB at RB to take over from Vlad and a second CB and we should be looking at competing with Villa, spuds and manure for the Europa league places at least!
Decent. We’re suddenly looking like we punch our weight.
Like this signing – skillful, quick and direct. Having speed and skill on both flanks this season looks quite exciting.
The question has not been answered is he a home grown player as an academy product at Leeds or classed as a foreign player
I think not, would have needed to spend 3 years plus at an academy to qualify. But I may be wrong
That’s correct, as I understand it. Three seasons before the players 21st birthday.
Don’t think so unfortunately. He’s been with Leeds since September ’21 and turns 23 on October 30th.
Homegrown foreign player requires a player to play for an English (or UK?) Club for 3 years before the age of 21.
That said, I’ve been wanting this lad at West Ham the last two years so I’m super excited and we will just need to figure the homegrown quota another way
Quality !! I m glad that this signing was not talked about until it actually happened !!! If we can get AWB it will be our best pre season ever put todibo and forfana into the mix then happy days COYI
Great signing
Where are all the Leeds supporters who piled in earlier 🤔🤪
Oh I’m loving this news ⚒️
Coyi can’t wait for start new season new players new coach new tactics yeah atlast am I to existed imagine season ticket holder for many years let’s play football Coyi
You got him too cheap , you lucky *******s !
What a great signing. I’m buzzing about this one, he is the player I was really hoping we would get.
Well done to all involved ⚒️
West ham are looking good can’t wait for new season and they’re definitely pinching at their weight inspired signing well done to the board
i’m alittle worried about the cost of the upkeep on his eyebrows! 🤣
This is now looking exciting …. Let’s get a centre forward and get the forward line completed…
