Milan, Napoli and Roma linked as price reportedly drops

AC Milan, Napoli and Roma are all reported to be considering Crysencio Summerville, with a lower West Ham asking price now claimed. TEAMtalk says Milan have made concrete enquiries and Napoli are exploring a move.

Il Messaggero, as cited by TEAMtalk, says West Ham have reduced their demand from about €40m to €30m to attract buyers. Roma are said to be considering an approach at that price, but have not made a formal offer.

Joost Blaauwhof says a move to Tottenham is off. No bid or agreement from Milan or Napoli is reported either, so the available accounts still stop short of a deal taking shape.
