Al-Bjadyah Overview

Tottenham Hotspur have officially completed the capture of West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes in a landmark deal worth £85 million. The 21-year-old Portugal international arrives in north London as the club's new record signing, though that title may not be held for long with further reinforcements imminent.

Manchester United have identified West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville as a leading target for the summer transfer window, but their pursuit hinges heavily on the future of Marcus Rashford. While Michael Carrick's side remain focused on bolstering their midfield, Summerville has caught their eye following impressive World Cup displays for the Netherlands.

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are both reportedly engaged in negotiations to sign Mateus Fernandes. Despite significant interest, West Ham United are refusing to lower their hefty asking price for the talented Portuguese midfielder, with a lengthy summer transfer saga now on the cards.

West Ham were once known as the “Academy of Football”, but former Hammers boss Harry Redknapp has told GOAL why “something has to be done” about the lack of exciting youngsters breaking through at top Premier League clubs. Chelsea and Liverpool are considered to form part of that problem, with Arsenal wonderkid Max Dowman proving to be a break from the norm at present.
