Roma linked with relegation-dependent Summerville offer

Roma were reported to be preparing an offer for Crysencio Summerville if West Ham were relegated, according to Il Messaggero as relayed by Claret&Hugh.

The account said the move depended on West Ham dropping into the Championship. It also quoted an unnamed London Stadium spokesman saying players might want to leave after relegation, while stressing that relegation would not make them bargain buys.

No bid, talks or agreement were reported. This was a conditional early link, not a deal.
