Everton and Crystal Palace will be hoping to have a busy and successful transfer window.
The summer transfer rumour mill is beginning to bubble up and it seemingly looks like that Everton and Crystal Palace may do business over the course of these next few months.
The Daily Mail claims that the London-based outfit, Premier League side Southampton and German club RB Leipzig are interested in Lookman’s signature.
It is said that the highly-rated 21-year-old, who was on-loan at Leipzig last season, is currently evaluating his current situation at Goodison Park.
There is no doubt that Lookman has the ability to become a top player, he just hasn’t played regularly enough to showcase his talent on the big stage.
Given the pressures at Everton and the big money players they have signed in recent seasons, it is difficult for the more younger players to break into the first-team.
Lookman may still have a future at Goodison Park, but there is no doubt that he’d play on a more regular basis at Palace and would be a devastatingly good signing for them.
As reported by Sky Sports, main man Wilfried Zaha has recently told Palace that he wants to leave the club, if he parts ways with his boyhood club then Lookman may well be an ideal replacement.
He won’t be able to match the performances Zaha has produced, but he’ll suit their style of play and can be part of a number of attacking players to fill Zaha’s void if he does leave Selhurst Park.
Either way, Lookman is at a stage of his career where he needs to play on a regular basis because he has the ability to push for an England spot down the line.
