Tottenham Hotspur and Everton have been named among clubs interested in taking Arkadiusz Milik and the striker was expected to leave Napoli during the last window after refusing to renew his contract, which expires at the end of this season.
Two days ago, Italian journalist Ciro Venerato stated the 26-year-old was ‘hoping’ to join the Toffees in the summer and reunite with his former manager, Carlo Ancelotti.
The Poland international will have six months left on his contract when the transfer window reopens in January, and the likes of the Merseyside club, Spurs and other suitors will have a chance to secure his signature in the winter market.
He now says Everton are ‘not interested’ in Milik and ‘as early as the summer’, the Everton manager ‘called’ Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis to inform he’s looking for a ‘player with different characteristics’, more similar to Victor Osimhen.
Regarding José Mourinho’s side, Venerato stated Tottenham ‘like him, but there’s nothing’.
