Everton have been told they will have to pay £20million to secure the services of reported transfer target Jarrod Bowen.
That’s according to Sky Sports, who claim Hull City have officially valued one of their most prized assets.
Everton are among a host of Premier League clubs to have shown an interest in Bowen, as well as Tottenham and Burnley.
The 22-year-old has a year-long extension option in his current Hull contract, which effectively means he has three and a half years remaining on it.
That allows the Tigers to value him highly and the report states that Hull “believe he is worth a similar price to other attackers that have recently stepped up from the Championship”, such as Leicester City’s James Maddison.
Bowen is enjoying an excellent season, scoring 11 times in 26 appearances and inspiring an excellent run of form for Hull.
Nigel Adkins’ side have won their last five Championship matches, including a 6-0 mauling of Bolton on New Year’s Day, in which Bowen scored.
Whether Everton’s interest continues after learning of the player’s valuation remains to be seen.
