Manchester United have reportedly made an enquiry for West Ham United winger Crysencio Summerville following his impressive start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup with the Netherlands.
The 24-year-old has emerged as a transfer target for the Red Devils after catching the eye in the Netherlands’ 2-2 draw against Japan, where he got on the scoresheet in an entertaining Group D encounter.
According to reports, United have made contact over a potential move for the former Leeds United winger, who remains under contract at West Ham for another three years.
World Cup display boosts transfer interest
Summerville’s stock has continued to rise despite West Ham’s relegation from the Premier League last season.
The Dutch international has impressed scouts with his pace, direct running and ability to create and score goals from wide areas.
His latest World Cup performance has further strengthened his reputation ahead of the summer transfer window.
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick is believed to be an admirer of the winger and sees him as a player capable of adding greater attacking threat and versatility to his squad.
West Ham are reportedly valuing Summerville at around £50 million, meaning any deal would require a significant financial commitment from the Old Trafford club.
Rashford future could determine move
A potential transfer remains dependent on developments surrounding Marcus Rashford’s future.
The England forward’s reported purchase option with Barcelona expired earlier this week, leaving uncertainty over whether he will remain at Manchester United or secure a move elsewhere.
Club officials are understood to prefer a permanent sale should Rashford leave, and any departure could create room in both the squad and wage structure for a move for Summerville.
Meanwhile, United continue to strengthen other areas of the team. The club have already secured the signing of midfielder Ederson from Atalanta and are also reported to be in discussions regarding further midfield additions.
