Everton reportedly enquire over deal for Senegal international

Everton have reportedly enquired over the availability of Torino forward and Senegal international M’Baye Niang.

Niang returns to Italy this summer off the back of an impressive World Cup campaign with Senegal, in which he netted on one occasion in his side’s group stage campaign.

Since the tournament, the forward’s future in Serie A has come under plenty of scrutiny, with a host of clubs believed to be keen on landing him ahead of next season.

Everton, according to a report from Gazzetta dello Sport, are among the clubs interested in landing Niang from Torino this summer.

The Italian news outlet reports that the Toffees have made an enquiry to Torino as they look to gauge the possibility of a summer deal for Niang, who is being courted by clubs from across Europe.

However, it is stated by Gazzetta that although interest from the Premier League is building, a move to Ligue 1 appears to be the most likely destination for Niang.

OGC Nice appear to be leading the race for Niang, who has also been linked with West Ham and Arsenal in recent times.
