Everton are now thought to be in the mix for Juventus winger Dejan Kulusevski, joining Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur in the race.
Tuttomercatoweb claim that Juventus could sell Kulusevski this month to raise funds for a new striker.
Arsenal and Tottenham are well-known admirers of Kulusevski and have been linked for weeks now.
The report adds that Everton want Kulusevski too though, and could make their own move to sign the Swede this month.
Everton have already been busy by signing left back Vitaliy Mykolenko and right back Nathan Patterson.
That’s an outlay of more than £25million, meaning Everton may need to sell in order to bring in any more new faces.
Kulusevski would almost certainly cost more than £30million, so this wouldn’t be a cheap signing at all.
Kulusevski has been likened to Mohamed Salah by Italian coach Pierpaolo Bisoli, but it hasn’t quite worked for him this season.
Massimiliano Allegro hasn’t been a fan of Kulusevski. The former Atalanta talent has started just four league games this season.
Kulusevski won’t want to stall his career at 21, and Everton could offer him a starring role either out wide or as a number 10.
Tottenham want to swap Giovani Lo Celso for Kulusevski according to reports in Italy, meaning Everton won’t find this battle easy.
Make no mistake though, if Everton can pull this Kulusevski move off, fans would be buzzing.
