Everton are now targeting Reims midfielder Amir Richardson, with interest also coming from Roma, Ajax, and Fiorentina, according to French outlet L’Equipe.
With Amadou Onana having left for Aston Villa earlier in the transfer window and Andre Gomes departing after his contract expired, Sean Dyche’s recruitment team may be seeking a replacement.
Although Tim Iroegbunam was signed this summer, the Toffees are looking to strengthen further.
L’Equipe reports that Everton have ‘positioned themselves’ to acquire Richardson, with Reims demanding around £10 million. Some clubs have already made offers for the midfielder.
Richardson, described as ‘special’ by analyst Ben Mattinson, is a towering presence at about 6 ft 5 and has impressed for Morocco at the Olympics.
Foot Mercato previously noted that Tottenham Hotspur were also monitoring the young midfielder.
The race to secure Richardson’s signature is heating up, and Everton will be eager to win this competition.
He offers not only technical skill but also the physicality that Dyche values in his team.
