Everton have been linked with the free-scoring youngster but it could affect where a current Toffees teenager plays next season.
According to a recent report from the Daily Mail, Everton are interested in signing Eupen attacker Henry Onyekuru this summer, but what would a move mean for Toffees youngster Ademola Lookman?
After all, Onyekuru is predominantly a left winger and he has scored 15 of his 19 goals this season from that position. He has also provided all but two of his nine assists while playing there and Everton manager Ronald Koeman is unlikely to sign him only to play him in a more unfamiliar role.
The 19-year-old can play as a centre forward and his future may lie there, yet given his impact down the left for Eupen it is likely that he would begin his career at Goodison Park where he feels most comfortable.
That could prompt a rethink for Lookman, who is predominantly a left-sided player but who has already played on the right and as a secondary striker since his own switch to Merseyside.
If Everton sign Eupen – and for now it is a big if – this will be a good problem for Koeman to solve, as he will have two of the most exciting teenage attackers in the game at his disposal.
But it could well be Lookman who is given a more advanced role in his first full season at the club, allowing Onyekuru to hit the ground running in the position he knows best.
