Bright Osayi-Samuel is thought to be interesting a number of English clubs this summer, with Everton joining Premier League rivals Tottenham and Arsenal in the pursuit of the Blackpool winger, reports The Sun.

The 19-year-old has made 30 appearances for the League Two club this season, 13 of which he started.

He has been in impressive form playing on either wing for the Seasiders, scoring five goals and assisting three.

With top Premier League clubs interested in the Osayi-Samuel, could a move to Everton be more favourable to the Nigerian wide man?

The Toffess may not be able to compete with their league rivals in terms of wages but perhaps a move to Tottenham or Arsenal would be too much, too soon.

He would likely struggle to get a look in at teams regularly chasing Top-four or title-winning finishes and therefore a move to Everton could be more appealing.

Under the stewardship of Ronald Koeman, Osayi-Samuel would be able to develop his game in a less pressured environment, with the potential for more game time to prove his worth in the top-flight.
