West Ham United and Newcastle United have also been linked with the Caen striker.

Everton and Southampton are interested in signing Yann Karamoh from Caen in the summer transfer window, according to France Football.

Karamoh has been on the books of Caen since 2011 and has a contract with the French club until June 2018, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.

It has been reported that the 18-year-old versatile attacking player has told his Ligue 1 club that he will not extend his current contract.

According to France Football, Everton and Southampton are interested in the teenager, who can operate as an attacking midfielder, winger or forward.

The report has also credited West Ham United with interest in Karamoh, who scored five goals and provided four assists in 25 Ligue 1 starts for Caen last season, according to WhoScored.

Earlier this month, The Shields Gazette claimed of Newcastle United’s interest in the talented and promising teenage attacker.

Karamoh has a lot of potential, but the 18-year-old is still very raw. The youngster would be a good long-term signing for Everton or Southampton, who should not expect him to make an instant impact in the Premier League.
