Everton interested in another winger

Everton, Leicester City & West Ham are just some of the numerous clubs who are reportedly interested in signing Midtjylland forward Pione Sisto.

According to Simon Jones of The Mail, the 21-year-old is being watched by numerous other sides such as Ajax, Borussia Dortmund and Valencia, but Leicester are reportedly leading the chase to sign him.

Everton signed Senegalese forward Oumar Niasse in the January transfer window and have had no trouble scoring goals this season, but Sisto is still on the Club’s radar as they prepare to spend heavily in the summer.

Sisto was born in Uganda but received special dispensation from FIFA to represent Denmark without having to wait for five years after his 18th birthday.

The 21-year-old is comfortable playing on either wing or centrally and will be familiar to Manchester United fans as he scored against them in both legs of the Europa League last 32 tie between Louis van Gaal’s side and Midtjylland.

The Danish side think they can get £12million for Sisto, so it remains to be seen which club decide to take a punt on him.
