Everton have been linked with a move for Nigerian U-17 forward Samuel Chukwueze.
The Nigerian star recently won the Under-17 World Cup with his country and in his seven matches he scored three goals and made three assists.
He looks to be a very promising forward and has accrued interest from not only Everton in the Premier League, but also Malaga from La Liga and Red Bull Salzburg from Austria.
The forward has already thought to have been in talks with the Premier League side according to top African agent Ifeanyi Elegbua Igwenjoku, who says the Under-17 star has been in negotiations with a few European clubs.
Three clubs have enquired from my partners in Europe about Samuel Chukwueze.
The clubs are Everton from the English Premier League as well as Malaga in Spain and Red Bull Salzburg in Austria.
We hope to get the best deal for Samuel. He is still a young player so we need to be sure that whichever club he ends up signing for is in his best interest.
Everton certainly haven’t struggled for goals this season, with Kone, Lukaku and Barkley all on stellar form going forward for the Blues so far this term.
But at just 17-years-old, Chukwueze would be a very good long-term option for Roberto Martinez and would definitely be one for the future.
