UNBELIEVABLE U-TURN! Everton’s Dream Striker Troy Parrott Suddenly Dirt Cheap After AZ Panic-Slash – £15m for a Goal Machine? You Won’t Believe What Happens Next!!”
Everton have been strongly linked with a move for Troy Parrott for several months.
Everton were first linked with Troy Parrott in November when club scouts reportedly monitored the striker while he was on international duty with the Republic of Ireland.
Since then, the forward has enjoyed an outstanding campaign, producing impressive performances for both club and country.
Parrott has been in remarkable form for AZ Alkmaar this season, scoring 24 goals for the Dutch side.
He has also contributed five goals for Ireland, including an eye-catching hat-trick against Hungary that further highlighted his growing reputation. His prolific form has inevitably attracted attention from several clubs across Europe.
Everton manager David Moyes is believed to be determined to strengthen his attacking options, with reports suggesting he is particularly eager to bring in a new striker.
As a result, the Merseyside club could revive their pursuit of Parrott during the summer transfer window.
In fact, Everton may now have a significant opportunity to secure his services following a new development regarding his valuation.
Earlier reports indicated that AZ Alkmaar were demanding around £31 million for the striker. However, during the January transfer window, no clubs came close to meeting that figure.
It now appears the Dutch club are willing to reconsider their stance.
According to reports from Sportsboom, Alkmaar have lowered their asking price considerably in an effort to attract potential buyers and possibly spark a bidding battle.
The new reported valuation stands at around £15 million, which many observers would view as a very reasonable fee for a striker in such strong form.
Whether that figure will ultimately be enough to finalise a deal remains uncertain. Nevertheless, Everton could test Alkmaar’s resolve by submitting an offer close to that amount.
However, the Toffees are not the only club monitoring the situation.
Both Fulham and VfL Wolfsburg are also believed to be interested in signing the former Tottenham Hotspur academy graduate.
Despite his impressive scoring record, some Everton supporters remain cautious. Concerns have been raised about the significant difference in quality between the Eredivisie and the Premier League.
Additionally, Moyes has often been patient when integrating younger players into his squad.
Meanwhile, Everton are also reportedly considering experienced alternatives such as Raúl Jiménez and Alexander Sørloth, both of whom are already in their thirties.
