Al-Hilal officially sign Crysencio Summerville
Crysencio Summerville has officially completed his move from West Ham United to Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal for an initial £68.23 million, ending Manchester United's hopes of signing the Dutch winger. United had tracked Summerville for weeks, with manager Michael Carrick seeking competition on the left wing amid Marcus Rashford's uncertain future. Interest in Summerville intensified after his impressive performances at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he scored twice and provided two assists. AS Roma also emerged as serious contenders before Al-Hilal entered the race with a stronger financial package. Manchester United refused to enter a bidding war and have instead focused on strengthening other areas, having already signed Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans, Karl Darlow, and Tynan Thompson this summer. Summerville now begins a new chapter with Al-Hilal after becoming one of the biggest transfer stories of the summer window.

However, the player himself has not yet made a final decision on whether to join Al Hilal or Roma. The next few hours are critical as Summerville must give his answer. Manchester United had also been linked but never took substantive action as long as Marcus Rashford remains at the club.
