# Everton’s Oumar Niasse offered in deal to Leeds United

Everton have reportedly offered forward Oumar Niasse on loan to Leeds United, according to reports from [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-offered-everton-striker/).

The forward has only played one minute of Premier League football this season, as per [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/oumar-niasse/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/209781/wettbewerb/GB1/saison/2019), and very much looks like he is out of Carlo Ancelotti’s plans.

Niasse is also out of [contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/oumar-niasse/profil/spieler/209781) at the end of the season, and Everton are looking to send the player out on loan before his deal expires.

[Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-offered-everton-striker/) believes that Leeds United are on the of the sides being offered Niasse, with Leeds reportedly after a striker to offer competition with Patrick Bamford.

Marcel Brands [revealed](https://royalbluemersey.sbnation.com/2020/1/14/21062457/marcel-brands-ultimate-everton-squad-goal-transfer-window-summary-spending-news-latest) that Everton are attempting to find a new club for Niasse during the annual general meeting, with the Senegalese forward not really having a place at the club.

### Read Everton’s verdict

Oumar Niasse’s career at Everton has never really worked.

After never really living up to his price tag when he signed, to then being [sent down to the U-23s and stripped of his locker](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/oct/11/everton-oumar-niasse-ronald-koeman-roberto-martinez) under Ronald Koeman, it really does seem that the time is right to cut ties.

Previous loan spells at Hull City and Cardiff City didn’t really work either, with [Niasse scoring](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/oumar-niasse/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/209781) only five times with Hull, and failing to net a single goal in Wales.

Therefore, loaning him out to Leeds seems a great idea.
