AC Milan are monitoring the progress of Everton loanee Henry Onyekuru.

Tuttomercatoweb report Milan sent scouts to watch Anderlecht in action at the weekend, specifically to watch Onyekuru and Leander Dendoncker.

Onyekuru only signed for Everton in the summer from Belgian side Eupen in the summer, but was sent out on loan as he did not qualify for a work permit.

Milan’s scouts at the weekend saw Onyekuru play a role in Anderlecht’s 4-0 win over Kortrijk, but he did not score, and managed to pick up a booking.

This season he has scored seven goals in 16 league games, although has just one in his last six, and none in five Champions League matches.

The 20-year-old is a player Everton have high hopes for, and it would be a big surprise if the Toffees sold him at this point.

It would take an offer Everton really could not refuse, and right now, Onyekuru is not quite showing the consistency to merit a blockbuster fee.
