# Everton linked with move for Demarai Gray

Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are two of the clubs being linked with a move for Leicester City winger Demarai Gray, as per a report from John Percy of The [Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/05/04/frustrated-leicester-winger-demarai-gray-weighs-transfer-options/?WT.mc_id=tmg_share_tw).

According to the report, Gray is becoming frustrated at his lack of playing time at the Foxes and is considering making a big push to force a move this summer.

It is being reported that his contract contains a £22million buy-out clause, although it is unlikely that either Everton or Spurs would be willing to pay such a large fee for him.

The 20-year-old is seemingly out of favour with Craig Shakespeare and has found himself on the bench more often than not this year and it looks like he’s starting to get a bit fed up with the lack of game time.

Of course, a move to Everton or Tottenham wouldn’t guarantee him regular first-team action either as both sides have some other quality forward players, but with both set to be competing in Europe, game time could be more readily available.
