Everton to fight Bournemouth for Arnaut Danjuma loan in January
Everton look to be gearing themselves up to fight Bournemouth for the loan signature of Arnaut Danjuma, according to TalkSPORT journalist Alex Crook.
Crook also reported that there is definite interest from Evidevisie giants PSV Eindhoven, however, Danjuma prefers a move to the Premier League.
Frank Lampard and Everton have yet to make any moves in the January transfer window and currently sit in the Premier League relegation zone.
“Still no firm update re Danjuma. Impression I get is that it’s between Everton and Bournemouth as Premier League is his preferred option,” said Crook on his personal Twitter account. (19 January, 7:13 PM)
“Definite interest from PSV though.”
Could be the man.
In over 217 career appearances, the talented 25-year-old Dutchman has scored 73 goals and registered 36 assists, not bad statistics if you ask me.
And with Lampard desperately needing an out-and-out goalscorer surely Danjuma could come into Goodison Park and makes things rosier.
Let’s face it, things can’t get much worse than they are now and the Blues need to make some moves sooner, rather than later, in fact, it’s already inches away from the later point now.
Danjuma would drastically improve the Toffees attack and surely a player of his calibre would prefer a move to Everton over Bournemouth?
Or is that just how far the Blues have sunk in recent years, that they are being outperformed and manoeuvred in the transfer market by the Cherries?
It’s time to start making some of these rumours into concrete moves, surely Lampard can use some of those man-management skills to pull this one off.
