Leicester City is about to recruit the “special” £21 million attacker that Everton was hoping for.
Leicester City is very close to acquiring a player who was supposedly wanted by Everton.
Iliman Ndiaye, Tim Iroegbunam, Jesper Lindstrom, and Jake O’Brien are the four new players that Everton has added this summer to join Sean Dyche’s team.
Though few, if any, more additions are anticipated, Dyche will be hoping to sign at least one before the transfer market closes at the end of the month, with his sights set on a striker and another midfield player.
However, he is now expected to pass up a rumored target.
Everton will not be getting Yaser Asrprilla.
Yaser Asprilla is a winger for Watford, and according to some rumors, Everton and Arsenal were vying for his signature early in the transfer window.
But it appears that Leicester City, who were just promoted, have taken the lead and are currently in the lead.
The Foxes have entered the hunt for Asprilla and are prepared to spend up to £21 million, according to Foot Mercato.
If Everton is still searching for a wide man, they will have to seek elsewhere. Watford’s YouTube account refers to the Columbia international as “special.” He is rumored to be en route to the East Midlands for additional negotiations.
