Aston Villa have taken further steps to sign Napoli winger and Everton target Jesper Lindstrom, according to Il Mattino.
Lindstrom, who arrived in Italy from Eintracht Frankfurt for €30 million last year, endured a difficult debut season in Naples. The Dane started just two Serie A games, failing to register a goal or assist in the league throughout the entire campaign.
Despite this underwhelming 12 months, both Villa and Everton are reportedly interested in bringing the 24-year-old attacking midfielder to the Premier League. According to Italian outlet Il Mattino earlier this week, the Villans ‘made a request’ for Lindstrom, with the same outlet reporting on Tuesday that a verbal €30m proposal has now been made.
The playmaker had been highly sought after last summer
Developing through the academy at boyhood club Brondby, Lindstrom bust onto the scene in 2019/20, and eventually earned a move to Frankfurt in 2021. Two impressive seasons with die Adler saw him establish himself as one of Europe’s hottest prospects, drawing attention from the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool.
However, the Denmark international eventually completed a blockbuster switch to Napoli, where he has been left frustrated due to limited opportunities on the pitch. Often used on the right-side of the attack or as a false nine by Eintracht, these areas were largely deployed by the likes of Victor Osimhen, Kvicha Kvaratskhelia and Matteo Politano.
