Ronald Koeman’s Everton side are expected to invest heavily to bring more talent to Goodison Park in the summer.
Youri Tielemans has told Belgian publication Walfoot that he would not be against a move to Everton.
It was suggested that a club like Everton would be perfect for the Anderlecht man, who is regarded as one of the brightest prospects in Europe.
And the 19-year-old has stated that he is eager to join a team where he plays regularly, to ensure that he develops, when he does leave Anderlecht.
“It’s what’s best to progress step by step,” Tielemans said, as quoted by the Daily Star, when asked whether he would be interested in a move to Everton.
“What Marc [Wilmots] says, it’s good to not burn steps and to avoid ending up on the bench and not getting game time.
“It’s what’s best for every footballer, I think.
“I, however, don’t have a preference league wise.”
Everton are expected to invest heavily again in the summer transfer window, with Ronald Koeman having a lot of funds to spend.
The Toffees were active in January, strengthening their push for a top six spot, and Koeman will be eager to add further quality to his squad when the window reopens.
Tielemans has had plenty of interest in recent years, and his form for Anderlecht has been hugely impressive this season.
The attacking midfielder has netted 14 goals and claimed nine assists in 34 appearances across all competitions this season.
