Summerville, a 6-time Netherlands international, has become the third-most expensive sale in West Ham history, behind Declan Rice and Mateus Fernandes, who joined Tottenham Hotspur earlier this summer.

Simultaneously, Summerville has become Al Hilal's second-most expensive incoming transfer in club history. The Saudi record champions' record stands at €90 million, which they paid for Neymar in 2023.
