[p][a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/summerville-crysencio/EaRET7t6/"]Summerville[/a] was involved in 10 goals (7 goals, 3 assists) in 34 appearances across all competitions for [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/west-ham/Cxq57r8g/"]West Ham[/a], but couldn't prevent the Hammers from going down on the final day of the Premier League season.[/p][p]The 24-year-old winger was called up for the upcoming FIFA World Cup by Netherlands manager Ronald Koeman, despite being uncapped. Koeman preferred Summerville over [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/liverpool/lId4TMwf/"]Liverpool[/a]'s [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/frimpong-jeremie/SjJ6pCvC/"]Jeremie Frimpong[/a], calling the West Ham star [b]"that sort of player who is reliable on the pitch. He’s very capable of playing on the right flank, too, but his work ethic is exceptional."[/b][/p][embed guid="6ce01f0f-1504-45e6-bccd-8f0b8e754873" url="https://x.com/joost_blaauwhof/status/2060020135688081530?s=20" social-type="twitter" /][p]Dutch outlet [i][b]Voetbal International [/b][/i]reported on Thursday that Summerville is getting a chance to break away from West Ham, with [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/as-roma/zVqqL0ma/"]AS Roma[/a] and relegation rivals [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/team/tottenham/UDg08Ohm/"]Tottenham Hotspur[/a] keeping tabs on the Dutch international-to-be.
