Spurs and the Hammers are currently separated by just one point in the Premier League table as both clubs fight to avoid relegation to the Championship. While Spurs prepare to face Leeds United on Monday night, West Ham host league leaders Arsenal at the London Stadium on Sunday. With Nottingham Forest sitting six points clear of West Ham, a defeat for the Hammers would reduce the survival battle to a straight two-team shootout between the London clubs.
Despite the on-pitch tension, Football Insider reports that the two clubs may conduct transfer business once the season concludes.
Spurs’ Long-Term Interest in Summerville
Spurs are described as long-term admirers of Summerville, whose stock has risen since joining West Ham from Leeds United. The 24-year-old has recorded five goals and three assists across 28 Premier League appearances in 2025-26, a marked improvement on his debut season in east London.
Should West Ham drop to the second tier, Summerville‘s Championship pedigree with Leeds could make him a valuable asset to keep. Yet West Ham may struggle to reject offers for a player acquired in a deal worth a potential £34 million in 2024.
Former scout Mick Brown, speaking on Football Insider‘s Inside Track Podcast, stated there will be “more than just Tottenham” looking at Summerville over the coming months.
Would Summerville Satisfy Spurs Fans?
If Spurs secure Premier League survival, a rebuild under Roberto De Zerbi will proceed without European football. That absence does not automatically limit their pull in the transfer market, but the fanbase will expect signings of higher caliber.
Summerville has contributed just 10 goals and seven assists across 81 Premier League appearances. The only campaign in which he surpassed five goals in a single season came in the Championship. He has yet to break into the senior Netherlands squad, a concern given the national team’s current level on the international stage.
There is time for Summerville to develop his Premier League profile, but even a cut-price deal is unlikely to generate much enthusiasm among Spurs supporters expecting a more ambitious summer. Follow TipsGG for continued coverage of this transfer story and all the latest Premier League news.
