Everton have reportedly rejected an improved offer for Ademola Lookman from RB Leipzig.
The England Under-21 international spent the second half of last season on loan with the Bundesliga outfit and impressed, prompting them to pursue the player on a permanent basis this summer.
Lookman is held in high esteem at Goodison Park and it seems they are not willing to let him go cheaply if they are to sell this summer. According to a report from the Mirror, Everton have turned down a bid worth £14 million for the former Charlton Athletic youngster.
It was reported that earlier this week that Everton had rejected an offer of £12m from Leipzig for Lookman, with the versatile attacker evidently a man in demand this summer.
However, it appears as though Lookman could be a part of Marco Silva’s plans for the future at Everton, with the club unwilling to sanction his sale this summer.
Whether Leipzig will return with a third bid for the 20-year-old remains to be seen, with the Mirror claiming that the Toffees will consider offers only in excess of £20m.
