Sport nationEverton Football Club has been active in the transfer market, with two signings and two departures so far. The Toffees are now eyeing a third signing, with negotiations underway to bring in Napoli midfielder Jesper Lindstrom.
Lindstrom, 24, has been compared to Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes and Germany’s Julian Draxler. He can play in attacking midfield and on the wings, and has represented Denmark at international level.
The Danish midfielder has struggled for game time at Napoli, but previously impressed at Eintracht Frankfurt with 28 goal contributions from 80 outings. He describes himself as a player who likes to play up front, link up play in the penalty area, and has a strong shot from distance.
Everton manager Sean Dyche has identified Lindstrom as his next top target, and negotiations are underway with Napoli. The Serie A club is open to selling Lindstrom if they receive a good proposal.
While Lindstrom’s signing would be a boost for Everton, the club has also been linked to Hellas Verona winger Jackson Tchatchoua. However, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has played down these links, stating that there are no talks between Everton and Verona for Tchatchoua.
Everton’s interest in Lindstrom highlights the club’s ambition to strengthen their squad and compete with top Premier League teams. With PSR concerns behind them, the Toffees can focus on making more signings and building a strong team for the upcoming season.
