The Fulham striker is reportedly interesting Everton and others.

The Fulham striker, Aleksandar Mitrovic, has placed a number of clubs, including Everton, on alert ahead of the January transfer window, according to the Sunday Mirror (December 16, page 65).

Mitrovic cost Fulham £20 million from Newcastle United ahead of the season, but is said to have grown unsettled since the Cottagers sacked Slavisa Jokanovic as manager.

The newspaper claims the 24-year-old feels his game was revitalised by his fellow Serbian, who brought him to Fulham on loan last season, and has told friends things are not the same with Claudio Ranieri in charge at Craven Cottage, which could lead to Everton, Chelsea, and potentially others, ‘hardenening up’ their interest.

Mitrovic has scored seven goals in 17 Premier League games this season, and it is unlikely that Fulham would let him go easily or cheaply.

Everton have often lacked a focal point this campaign, with Cenk Tosun frequently omitted as he struggles to find form.

Should Everton move for the Fulham striker?
