French giants Paris Saint-Germain have made contact regarding the availability of midfield maestro Mateus Fernandes and dynamic winger Crysencio Summerville.
The Ligue 1 champions are looking to exploit the uncertainty at the London Stadium after Nuno Espirito Santo was unable to prevent a shock relegation to the Championship.
Following their drop to the second tier, the Hammers are under significant financial pressure to reduce their wage bill and generate over £100 million in player sales to stabilise the books, making the departure of key assets inevitable.
Fernandes has emerged as the crown jewel of this potential double deal, with the 21-year-old Portuguese international attracting elite interest across Europe after a stellar breakout campaign.
Manchester United have positioned themselves as his preferred destination, but PSG’s entry into the race has blown the competition wide open.
West Ham are reportedly demanding €80 million, due to both the level of interest and a 15% sell-on clause owed to former club Southampton. PSG, however, have the financial muscle to meet that valuation outright.
At the same time, Luis Enrique’s recruitment team have identified Summerville to add explosive depth to the Parisian flanks.
The 24-year-old Dutch winger, who arrived from Leeds United, is already tipped for an immediate departure from East London. West Ham have set a €50 million valuation on the attacker.
While losing both Fernandes and Summerville in one window would be a major blow to their Championship promotion ambitions, the significant capital raised could give West Ham the financial leeway needed to rebuild the squad for life in the second tier.
