Everton keeping eye on Leeds teenager

Everton are interested in bringing Leeds United teenager Mallik Wilks to Goodison Park, the Daily Mail report.

It has been reported that fellow Premier League side West Brom have also been looking closely at the striker, with interest seemingly large for the teenager.

Wilks, 18, was loaned out to League Two side Accrington Stanley in the summer, and has impressed during his time at the Wham Stadium, finding the back of the net five times so far in all competitions.

Wilks is regarded as a hot prospect by the Championship side, however, his deal with the Whites runs out at the end of the current campaign, allowing him to move on to another club, if Leeds decide against offering him a new deal to remain at Elland Road.

The teenager has already made his senior Leeds debut, coming off the bench in the FA Cup defeat to Sutton last season.
