Everton target Noa Lang begins farewell tour at Club Brugge
Everton target Noa Lang has reportedly started his “farewell tour” at Club Brugge and it seems like he will be leaving the club in the summer.
According to Voetbal Nieuws [17 November], the Dutch international is expected to be one of the major transfers out of the Belgian league once the window opens.
Clubs like Leeds United, Bournemouth and West Ham have also been linked with a move for his services at the end of the season.
Good signing
The Toffees were looking for an attacker all January and ended the window without signing anyone.
While they won’t be getting Lang until the summer, he’s a signing that makes a lot of sense due to his versatility of playing varied attacking positions.
He can play out wide, as a shadow striker, as well as a second striker along with someone like Dominic Calvert-Lewin who can hold the ball and Lang, can then make those runs in behind.
It remains to be seen whether or not the Toffees will be able to afford his wages as there are likely to be other clubs willing to offer more.
New American investors are now keen on investing in the club so that could help finance these deals and a lot of it also depends on their Premier League status.
Lang would also have plenty of suitors and there’s a good chance if he gets European football, he may even snub any approach made by Everton.
