Everton ‘could be added’ to clubs chasing La Liga man – Toffees were ‘already interested’ in player in summer

Everton are in the picture to sign Villarreal star Samuel Chukwueze, according to a report from Spain.

The winger has scored five goals and managed six assists in all competitions this season and his displays have attracted attention from England.

That’s according to Superdeporte, who insist Everton are one of the 23-year-old’s suitors from the Premier League.

Earlier this week, a report from the UK explained that Aston Villa want to sign the Nigeria international. This is relayed by the newspaper, and they then mention the Toffees.

It’s explained that ‘Everton could be added’ to the list of clubs that are looking at the La Liga attacker. Frank Lampard’s side were ‘already interested’ in Chukwueze in the summer transfer window and they are now back in the picture.

That’s all Superdeporte have to say about the Merseyside club in a report that focuses on the possibility of the Yellow Submarine losing Chukwueze and Álex Baena to English clubs in January.

Unai Emery’s presence at Aston Villa could give Aston Villa an edge over Everton and others to sign Chukwueze since the Spaniard managed the wideman when at Villarreal.
