Everton are hot on the trail of Southampton’s superstar.
Everton are keeping an eye on £30 million Southampton prodigy Sulemana.
Kamaldeen Sulemana’s Eleventh-Hour Pursuit
Everton manager Sean Dyche is in a race against time as the transfer window approaches its end on Friday, September 1st.
The Merseyside club is looking to sign Southampton’s teenage attacker, Kamaldeen Sulemana. The Ghanaian international is thought to be the ideal alternative for Alex Iwobi, who is likely to join Fulham.
Sulemana’s Visit to Southampton
The 21-year-old winger joined Southampton from Rennes earlier this year during the January transfer window. Despite his best efforts, he was unable to keep the Saints out of the relegation zone.
Sulemana is looking for a Premier League return after making 18 appearances and scoring two goals in the second half of the season.
Everton might be his ticket back to the top division.
The Financial Obstacle
Sulemana has been valued at £30 million by Southampton, posing a challenge to Everton’s transfer budget. However, the player himself is keen on a move to Merseyside, making discussions for the Toffees a little easier.
A More In-Depth Look at Sulemana’s Career
Sulemana had a promising season at Rennes before joining Southampton, appearing 20 times in the first half of the season and even making an appearance in the Europa League.
He is a product of FC Nordsjaelland’s prestigious academy and is under contract at St Mary’s Stadium until June 2027.
On the international scene, he has 18 caps for Ghana, including a World Cup appearance, but has yet to score for his country.
Summer Business at Everton
The Toffees have been very active this summer, bringing in five new players. Beto, a high-profile signing from Udinese, is one of them.
However, Sulemana’s acquisition might be the icing on the cake, filling the vacuum left by Iwobi and bringing a new aspect to their offensive options.
Last Thoughts
With the clock ticking and the deadline approaching on Friday, Everton’s pursuit of Sulemana is one to watch. Will Sean Dyche be able to secure this potential young talent, or will financial restraints be a hindrance? The only way to know is to wait and see
