West Ham have confirmed that Crysencio Summerville has completed a move to Saudi side Al-Hilal. The transfer sees the Netherlands winger leave the Premier League club after West Ham announced the sale.
The move had been expected after reports earlier in the week said the two clubs had reached an agreement. BBC Sport reported that the package was worth £60m, made up of an initial £55m with further payments in add-ons.
Summerville’s switch is another notable addition for Al-Hilal as Saudi clubs continue to bring in players from major European leagues. For West Ham, the deal represents a significant outgoing transfer and a major change in their wide attacking options.
With the transfer now confirmed, attention will turn to how Al-Hilal use Summerville and how West Ham respond in the market after sanctioning the winger’s departure.
