Christian Kouamé has been regularly deployed as a centre forward at Genoa this season and in return, has managed to score only four goals and register five assists in 28 league appearances.
In February, we covered claims from Italy that Crystal Palace had joined Juventus and AS Roma in looking at the 21-year-old.
Calciomercato now has a report on the Ivory Coast attacker and the headline reads ‘Genoa, English sirens for Kouamé’.
It’s stated the clubs from the Premier League have shown interest in the African player and they specifically mention Everton and West Ham United as the two clubs chasing him.
The report explains the Merseyside club and Manuel Pellegrini’s side are ready to offer Genoa chairman Enrico Preziosi’s asking price of €30m, so that the Serie A outfit could sanction Kouamé’s sale in the upcoming transfer window.
To be clear, they state: ‘West Ham and Everton would be willing to guarantee Enrico Preziosi the 30 million euros requested’
Genoa signed the player from Serie B side Cittadella last summer after he impressed in the second division during the previous campaign, scoring 11 goals and registering 11 assists.
