Everton forward Henry Onyekuru is attracting interest on the continent.
According to The Mirror, Everton-owned forward Henry Onyekuru is attracting interest from European giants Bayern Munich, Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain.
Onyekuru, 21, made his name with KAS Eupen having arrived thanks to their links with the Aspire Academy, and he became a sensation in Belgium.
The Nigerian winger hit 24 goals in the 2016-17 campaign, earning a move to Everton in the summer of 2017 as then-director of football Steve Walsh swooped to land him.
However, work permit issues meant that he was loaned out to Anderlecht, where he scored 10 times in 28 games before having his season cut short by injury.
Everton again loaned him out over the summer, sending him to Turkey with Galatasaray, where he has scored just twice – but is now attracting major interest from some huge European clubs.
The Mirror report that Bayern Munich, Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain are all keen on Onyekuru, who could well leave Everton in 2019 without ever having played for them.
Everton’s director of football Marcel Brands must now decide whether to cash in on Onyekuru or remain hopeful that he will end up with a work permit to play for the club in the near future.
With Ademola Lookman struggling for playing time as it is, adding another young winger into the mix could pose a problem for manager Marco Silva, and if Everton are offered major profit on their £7million outlay on Onyekuru, they may just be tempted into a deal.
