Reported Everton transfer target Sami Khedira is receiving intensified interest from a host of Premier League clubs after it emerged that his preference is to make a final big-league switch to the Premier League.
Although the 33-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Merseyside, he is reportedly a target for Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur according to the Daily Express.
Khedira has failed to make a single appearance under current manager Andrea Pirlo at Juventus despite having helped to secure five Serie A titles since he joined the Turin giants in 2015.
He recently admitted it has always been a “dream” of his to play in the Premier League after also winning league titles with Real Madrid and Stuttgart before joining Juventus – with several clubs now keen on the player since his availability has become abundantly clear.

Despite the intensification of Premier League competition for Khedira’s signature, now is not the time for Evertonians to be sweating over the possibility of failing to secure the veteran midfielder.
The personal relationship previously enjoyed between Carlo Ancelotti and the German dynamo while both were at Real Madrid may well be the selling point needed by the Toffees to persuade Khedira to choose Goodison Park over the other Premier League suitors.
The 2014 World Cup winner played under Ancelotti and won the Champions League at Real Madrid that same year – a testament to the ability of both player and manager to deliver tangible success.
