Everton considering move for Bundesliga forward

Everton have been linked with a move for RB Leipzig forward Yussuf Poulsen, with Newcastle and West Ham also keen on the player.

Calcio Mercato reports that the Premier League trio are all interested in the player.

The 24-year-old is under contract with Leipzig until 2021 but is being tipped to leave the club in the near future.

Poulsen has played a key role in Leipzig’s rise through German football but has fallen out of favour of late.

With Leipzig continuing to establish themselves as one of the strongest sides in the Bundesliga, Poulsen was restricted to just 18 league starts last season.

The Danish international scored four goals and registered a further two assists throughout the previous campaign.

Poulsen impressed for Denmark during the World Cup, scoring in their opening game against Peru.

Marco Silva is looking to put his own stamp on the Everton squad and add reinforcements in the final third.
