Everton are showing an interest in West Ham United winger Crysencio Summerville.

David Moyes and his Everton chiefs have added Crysencio Summerville to their transfer shortlist after his standout season.

Despite suffering relegation with the Hammers, Summerville still managed to register a commendable 12 goal involvements.

Surely the writing is on the wall now?

The jet-heeled wide player earned a call-up to the Netherlands’ World Cup squad, and he has seriously impressed in his first two games.

That, however, may not work in Everton’s favour.

Crysencio Summerville may now be out of Everton’s reach

Everton were informed earlier this week that Summerville would cost £50m, so that was already a huge blow to the Friedkins.

Now, the potential signing looks even more unlikely after the West Ham star’s heroics at the World Cup in America.

Summerville has netted in both games for the Netherlands, so the Toffees are now facing serious competition to land his signature.

Manchester United recently joined the transfer race and now Fabrizio Romano reports that Paris Saint-Germain are interested.

So, in truth, Everton have very little chance of pulling off this transfer and should instead focus on other options rather than wasting time on the deal.

The Toffees recently pitched their project to Harry Wilson, who is set to become a free agent upon the end of his Fulham contract this month.

Millwall’s Femi Azeez has also been linked to the Hill Dickinson Stadium after his impressive season in the Championship.
