Transfer: Everton targets loan move for Chukwueze

Premier League club, Everton are in talks with Villarreal for Nigeria international, Samuel Chukwueze.

The Toffees, according to the Daily Mail, are looking to sign the winger on loan with an obligation to buy.

Chukwueze has struggled for regular playing time at Villarreal with Spaniard Yemeni Pino ahead of him in the pecking order.

The 23-year-old has made three substitute appearances for Unai Emery’s this season.

No thanks to a series of injuries, he made his least starts for Villarreal last season – 12 – last season after he broke into the main squad in the 2018/19 season.

His compatriot, Alex Iwobi is already part of the Everton squad.
