# Toffees Eye Move for Prolific Polish Striker Arkadiusz Milik

Everton are joined by Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur in eyeing a move for Polish international striker Arkadiusz Milik in January, according to [Calcio Mercato](https://www.calciomercato.com/news/napoli-per-milik-e-sempre-piu-premier-a-gennaio-30110).

A number of clubs, including Italian giants Juventus, have been alerted to the player’s availability after the 26-year-old was a notable exclusion from Napoli’s Serie A and Champions League squads.

The Polish-born hitman has less than a year left on his contract and is eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement with any club from January. The former Ajax talent has [scored](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/arkadiusz-milik/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/191891/wettbewerb/IT1/verein/6195)38 goals in 93 league appearances and could further bolster an Everton side that boasts Richarlison, James Rodriguez and Dominic Calvert-Lewin as attacking threats.

It was previously believed that the player was willing to run down his Napoli contract and leave as a free agent, but it is now understood that the player is growing frustrated in Naples and will opt for an earlier move in the winter transfer window.

Speaking to [Sportowefakty.pl](https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/) in October, Milik said: “Now, I’ll wait for the next transfer window and I hope the clubs can find an understanding. Physically I’m fine, I have trained well individually.

“I will play matches with the national side. In three months, my form won’t be affected too much.”

A transfer deal in January would be shrewd and relatively cheap move by the Toffee’s board – but they will face strong competition to bring the Polish striker to Merseyside.

With a goal ratio of almost one goal in every three appearances, Milik is evidently a prolific threat with the potential to add a lot to Ancelotti’s side. However, a deal will not come easily.
