Everton star Cenk Tosun is reportedly attracting interest from two clubs during the current January transfer window.

According to Sky Sports, Besiktas and CSKA Moscow are both keen on trying to sign the 29-year-old this month with just a few days remaining to conduct business.

It is explained that Premier League rivals West Brom have been looking at the £60,000-a-week man as a potential target during January, but have now turned their attention elsewhere.

Besiktas, who currently sit top of their domestic league in Turkey, are looking at re-signing Tosun.

The centre-forward previously scored 64 goals in 142 appearances for them.

But the Turkey international has been down the pecking order at Goodison Park this season for Everton, scoring just once in seven games.

TBR’s View:

If Everton feel they can cope without Tosun for the second half of the season, then they should allow his exit and give him the chance to play regularly elsewhere.

He’s proven at other clubs that he can be a goal machine and is a decent finisher around the penalty box, but his all-round game doesn’t quite make him well suited to the pace of Premier League.

The striker doesn’t have any kind of blistering speed and very much relies on the ball into his feet.
