Tottenham Hotspur would be a great club for west ham united star Crescencio Somerville this summer, with a transfer almost inevitable.
This is the opinion of Dutch journalist duo Johan Derksen and René van der Gijp. His comments on the winger have been Relayed by Soccer News.
West Ham exit likely
Crescencio Somerville is expected to leave Wet Ham this summer after the Hammers slipped into the Championship.
The 24-year-old was undoubtedly one of West Ham's best players this season, especially after a turn of the year when he flourished under Nuno Espirito Santo.
Now he continues to enhance his reputation at the World Cup with the Netherlands. He already has two goals and an assist in two matches for the Dutch after a surprise call up to Ronald Koeman ahead of the tournament.
His impressive debut on the big stage has increased speculation about his future. Sport Witness has covered numerous reports for months, mostly focused on Roma.
But the Premier League is also taking notice. Reports in England have linked Manchester United, while Tottenham could also be suitors. They are looking to strengthen their forward options this summer, and the Dutchman is one name likely to be on their list.
tottenham transfer encouraged
If that happens, Derksen and Van der Gijp would certainly support that move. Either way, they are confident Somerville will leave the London Stadium in the coming weeks.
“The guy is going to join a new club,” Derksen said on Vandaag Inside.
"In England, wingers aren't really a dime a dozen. They have performed incredibly well. They shouldn't be in the Championship; there's a big difference between it and the Premier League."
“You have to be in the Premier League these days,” Van der Gijp said.
"Tottenham Hotspur are always looking to make moves in the transfer market. It would be a really great club."
