Aston Villa monitoring Summerville after relegation

Aston Villa are the latest club said to be looking at Crysencio Summerville, but this is shortlist interest rather than a transfer taking shape.

The Athletic reports that Villa are considering the winger for the left side alongside Jonathan Rowe and Karim Adeyemi, with Jadon Sancho's loan ending. The link comes after West Ham's relegation to the Championship.

No bid, negotiations, personal terms or agreement are reported. For now, Summerville is one option among several.
