Roma targets Summerville amid West Ham agreement breakdown
Summary

Transfer market expert Matteo Moretto reports that Roma has pursued winger Summerville following an agreement with West Ham for around €50 million. Despite the English club's acceptance based on a verbal agreement with the player, Al-Hilal intervened with a much higher offer, reaching €70-80 million. Summerville, however, did not give his consent to join Al-Hilal and expressed his desire to join Roma during calls overnight. The transfer process was complicated as Roma and West Ham were exchanging documents, and a certified email from Summerville confirming his intent to move to Roma was never received.
