Southampton and Nottingham Forest have joined Everton in the race to sign Hull City’s Óscar Estupiñán in January.
Four days ago, Las2Orillas reported the Toffees are thinking of hiring the 26-year-old in the winter market. He is valued at €6m, but the Tigers could demand more to let go of the player.
AS in Colombia now state the striker is of interest to Southampton, Nottingham Forest, Everton and a few other clubs.
He joined Hull City last summer and has enjoyed an impressive season, managing 12 goals and an assist from 24 league matches.
This has seen Estupiñán attract attention from Frank Lampard’s side, Southampton and the Tricky Trees.
It’s even claimed the Colombia international’s days at Hull City may be numbered and he ‘could even leave in January’.
The Saints and Nottingham Forest’s interest indicates these two clubs would be ready to frustrate Everton in the pursuit of the South American.
With Estupiñán wanted by several Premier League sides, the report explains his exit could be accelerated in the current window.
If so, it needs to be seen who among Southampton, Nottingham Forest and Everton will be able to sign him.
