Han would be the first North Korean to play for Arsenal or Everton, should either side pursue their alleged interest.

The teenage North Korea international has scored four goals in his first three games for the Serie B side, to whom he is on loan from Cagliari.
According to Transfermarkt, Perugia have an option to sign Han on a permanent deal, which would in turn include a buy-back option for Cagliari.

But alleged interest from Arsenal and Everton, not to mention Juventus, could scupper either side’s chances of holding on to him long-term.
Both Arsenal and Everton boast impressive records when it comes to blooding young talent, which would surely appeal to the 18-year-old.
In April this year, Han became the first player from his country to appear in Serie A, and scored his solitary goal for Cagliari in only his second appearance for the club against Torino – whose then-goalkeeper was England number 1 Joe Hart.

Could either Arsenal or Everton make Han the first?
