Man United Ex-Scout Criticizes Crysencio Summerville's Market Value Amid Transfer Speculation Man United have been advised against paying up to £50 million to sign West Ham forward Crysencio Summerville this summer, according to a club insider. The 24-year-old, who has been linked with several Premier League clubs following West Ham’s relegation to the Championship, is reportedly set to leave the London Stadium after a mixed campaign. His performances at the World Cup with the Netherlands have sparked renewed interest, but former United chief scout Mick Brown has questioned whether the player warrants such a high transfer fee. Summerville, who scored two goals in three World Cup matches for the Netherlands, is under contract with West Ham for another three seasons. Despite the Hammers’ relegation, the club is unlikely to sell him for less than £50 million, as they remain in a strong financial position. However, Brown, who previously evaluated Summerville during his time at Leeds, has expressed skepticism about his consistency at the top level. In an exclusive interview with Football Insider, Brown revealed that he never viewed Summerville as a long-term solution for Leeds. “I was asked about him many times while he was at Leeds. I don’t wish to be disparaging, but I had him down then as a 15-20 minute player,” Brown said. “He could bring people into action, do something electric, and end up with a shot on goal. That wasn’t all him starting—sometimes it was coming on and just having this effect, which concerns me.” Brown highlighted Summerville’s inconsistent impact, noting that while the player occasionally delivers moments of brilliance, he struggles to maintain that form over a full match. “If he’s that influential, why was he not in Leeds’ team?” he questioned.#west_ham #world_cup #crysencio_summerville #man_united #mick_brown
