Everton striker Oumar Niasse is reportedly wanted by Cardiff City in the summer transfer window.

Oumar Niasse of Everton warms up prior to the Premier League match between West Ham United and Everton at London Stadium on May 13, 2018 in London, England.

Cardiff City are interested in signing Oumar Niasse from Everton in the summer transfer window and are set to make a bid, according to The Sun on Sunday (print edition, page 59, June 3, 2018).

It has been reported that Cardiff manager Warnock wants Niasse on a season-long loan deal for the 2018-19 campaign and will ask Everton to sell the striker for a low fee next summer.

Good signing for Cardiff City?

Niasse has been on the books of Everton since February 2016 when he joined from Lokomotiv Moscow for a transfer fee stated on the club’s official website to be worth £13.5 million.

The Senegal international has not had exactly a ‘great’ time at Goodison Park and had a loan spell at Hull City in 2017 as well.

The 27-year-old striker, who earns £55,000 per week as salary according to Spotrac.com, knows the Premier League, and a season-long loan deal would be good for Cardiff, who have won automatic promotion from the Championship this past season.

However, with Everton having appointed Marco Silva their new manager, the Toffees may not be willing to let go of the striker this summer.
