Gazzetta dello Sport: Roma Expected to Sign Summerville Today for €47M Plus Bonuses
According to Gazzetta dello Sport journalist Andrea Pugliese, AS Roma is on the verge of completing the transfer of Dutch winger Summerville from West Ham United. The deal, expected to be finalized today, involves a fixed fee of approximately €47 million plus €4-5 million in performance-related bonuses, totaling over €50 million. Negotiations continued late into the night, with Roma optimistic about closing the agreement. A private clause in Summerville's contract allowed him to leave if West Ham were relegated and a suitable offer arrived. Roma moved quickly to raise their bid to fend off interest from Aston Villa, who have funds from selling Morgan Rogers. If completed, Summerville will become one of Roma's most expensive signings, surpassing Schick, Abraham, and Dovbyk. Coach Gasperini sees Summerville as the ideal attacking winger for his tactics, valuing his speed, dribbling, and one-on-one ability.
