Sport nationEverton FC is in talks to sign Napoli’s attacking midfielder, Jesper Lindstrom who plays just like Cole Palmer, this summer. According to Fabrizio Romano, Everton is looking to strengthen their squad ahead of next season and is interested in adding Lindstrom to their lineup.
Lindstrom, a 24-year-old Danish international, has been with Napoli since last summer but has struggled to find regular playing time. He made 32 appearances for the Italian club last season, but most of them were brief cameos towards the end of matches. As a result, he is now looking for a move away from Napoli to gain more playing experience.
Everton, who avoided relegation last season despite a points deduction, is keen to sign Lindstrom to bolster their attack. Manager Sean Dyche wants to add more firepower to his squad and believes Lindstrom’s versatility – he can play as a number 10 or on either flank – would be an asset to the team.
The Toffees have already opened talks with Napoli and are hoping to strike a deal in the coming weeks. However, Napoli will only sell if they receive a good proposal, and Everton will need to negotiate carefully to secure Lindstrom’s signature.
If successful, Lindstrom’s signing would be a significant coup for Everton, who are working with a limited budget this summer. The club is looking to make the most of their resources and believes Lindstrom has the potential to be an exceptional signing.
In other news, Everton has been offered the services of Danny Ings and Maxwel Cornet, but it is unclear whether the club will pursue either player. The Toffees are focused on signing Lindstrom and will likely prioritize his signing over other targets.
As the transfer window continues, Everton fans will be watching closely to see if the club can secure Lindstrom’s signature and add more firepower to their attack. With the right signings, the Toffees could make a strong push for a top-half finish next season.
