LAST OF THE SUMMER WHINE

CRYSENCIO SUMMER- VILLE is loving life again now that he is injury-free and learning from a new manager.

The West Ham winger returns to former club Leeds tonight with Nuno Espirito Santo's side in desperate need of a win following a league run of one point from 15.

Having suffered a nightmare layoff of seven months after a hamstring injury in January that needed surgery, he returned for eight minutes of the 3-0 win at Nottingham Forest on the last day of August.

That, however, is the Hammers' only win of the season and another defeat at Elland Road could see them start to drift early in the campaign.

Dutchman Summerville, who signed from Leeds in the summer of 2024, is determined to make the most of his return to help turn things round.
