90Min claim Everton are among the clubs looking at Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhill – along with six other Premier League clubs including Leeds, West Ham, Wolves, Leicester, Southampton and Brentford.
Brownhill, 26, has been a regular for Burnley since joining the club from Bristol City in January 2020. He has since clocked up 84 appearances for the Clarets, but failed to prevent Burnley from relegation last season.

But the ex-Preston and Barnsley midfielder is set to leave this summer as Burnley prepare for a summer exodus. Nick Pope, James Tarkowski and Ben Mee have already left, while Maxwel Cornet and Dwight McNeil are likely to go.
West Ham have already been linked with the £15million-rated midfielder this summer – and now, 90Min say Everton are also in the race, along with Leeds and four others. He has a contract at Burnley until 2024.
Everton among clubs looking at Brownhill along with Leeds
Brownhill is a steady Premier League player. Hard-working, tough-tackling, but boasting an impressive array of passing and the odd goal from long range. He is too good for the Championship and will be snapped up.
Is he worth £15million? Questionable. But he is a solid player and one that will improve the aforementioned Premier League clubs. What is his best move? Southampton, Leeds, Everton, Wolves and Leicester need a midfielder.
Leeds could lose Kalvin Phillips. Everton want Harry Winks. Wolves are set to lose Joao Moutinho. Leicester might sell Youri Tielemans. Southampton’s James Ward-Prowse is in demand. West Ham and Brentford need cover.
