Several clubs interested in Niasse

A host of Premier League clubs are targeting Everton outcast Oumar Niasse, according to the Daily Mirror.

Crystal Palace, Sunderland, Hull and West Brom are all said to be interested in signing the striker before the end of this summer’s transfer window.

However, they face competition from Turkish Super League side Besiktas, according to Turkish television station LigTV.

Niasse joined Everton in January for a fee in the region of £13.5m but has made just seven league appearances since then and is out-of-favour under new boss Ronald Koeman.

The Senegal international was also arrested in May on suspicion of assault. With Everton unhappy with his misconduct, they are looking to move him on as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, teams are unwilling to take the risk on a permanent deal because a lack of match fitness and the Toffees may have to settle for a loan move for the 2016/17 campaign.
