Jarrod Bowen could make a move to Everton this summer.

The England international is coming off the ultimate disappointment as West Ham were relegated from the Premier League on the final day.

Thanks to the Toffees’ defeat away to Tottenham, the Hammers dropped into the Championship for the first time since they were relegated in 2011.

That could ironically play into the Blues’ hands when the summer transfer window opens at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Everton could now swoop in to sign Bowen, with the prospect of working with David Moyes potentially set to act as a sweetener.

Jarrod Bowen wants to work with David Moyes again

The 29-year-old is undoubtedly West Ham’s best player after many years at the top level as the Hammers’ skipper.

He wasn’t able to keep his side in the Premier League despite putting up 20 goal involvements, but that doesn’t mean he has to play in the second tier.

There is likely to be plenty of interest in his signature moving into the summer window, but the Toffees could have the upper hand in any negotiations.

Former Everton scout Bryan King believes the Englishman would be open to a Merseyside move, while suggesting Moyes could be a major factor in sealing a deal.

Speaking exclusively to Goodison News, King said: “There are certain players at West Ham that Moyes will be looking at.

“The big one is Bowen, of course.

“He’s a player who is capable of playing for any side in the Premier League.

“Everton will be interested if he’s available. They won’t get better quality than that in this window.

“He would be open to a move if he could rejoin Moyes.”

Bowen has been linked to Everton in the past, and he could leave West Ham despite a recent statement indicating his commitment to returning to the Premier League with his club.

How much could Everton pay for Bowen?

The Toffees certainly haven’t got the best record when it comes to spending, so they need to be careful if they are going to spend big on the forward.

With Gylfi Sigurdsson and Tyler Dibling being the two record signings on Merseyside right now, it is safe to say they haven’t been totally successful.

Bowen could prove to be the new record signing for Everton if he joins from West Ham, even after they were relegated from the Premier League.

The 1996-born ace would almost certainly guarantee quality, so would be worth that fee, with anywhere upwards of £40million expected.

That is largely due to his contract at the London Stadium, which lasts until 2030, something that the Blues would have to contend with this summer.
