Ahead of the summer, Everton have earmarked Summerville as a £35m target amid West Ham’s relegation battle.

Would you rather Everton sign Summerville or Bowen this summer? 👀
It is said Roma are hoping for West Ham to face the drop as it could result in a favourable deal for them.
With both Everton and Roma interested in the 24-year-old, it will be interesting to see how Dan and Ryan Friedkin are able to handle the situation.

On the back of an underwhelming first summer window on Merseyside, the Americans are not escaping the heat at Finch Farm, with Everton also in need of a strong summer.
