# Everton target ‘waiting for Premier League transfer’

Everton and West Ham target Jordan Lukaku is said to be waiting for Premier League transfer to happen.

[Corriere Roma](https://roma.corriere.it/), as cited on [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/serie-defender-end-everton-hed-follow-brothers-footsteps/), reports that the player has been frozen out of the squad at Lazio, as he prepares to leave the club this summer.

A move to West Ham had been discussed earlier in the transfer, with the Hammers keen to complete a double swoop for both Lukaku and Felipe Anderson, but that move did not materialise.

With Andreson completing a move to the London Stadium, it is yet to be seen if Manuel Pellegrini’s men will reignite their interest in the Belgian defender.

However, the report claims that the defender is still expected to end up in the Premier League.

Everton have been named as a potential destination for the player, who could follow in the footsteps of his brother Romelu Lukaku.

Marco Silva is currently on the hunt for a new left-back and has been linked with Lucas Digne and Celtic’s Kieran Tierney recently.
