Everton have reportedly joined the pursuit for dazzling attacker Trezeguet, who plays for Turkish top-flight side Kasimpasa.

According to the Mirror, the Toffees are one of several teams to be keen on the in demand 24-year-old.

It is understood that Premier League rivals Aston Villa and Watford have him in their sights, while European teams Inter Milan, Fenerbahce and Galatasaray are interested.

The report explains that Kasimpasa will allow Trezeguet to allow if they receive a “suitable offer”, while the player is “keen” on a switch to England.

The Sun previously reported lat week that Villa were chasing an £8million swoop for Trezeguet.

TBR’s View:

Everton’s arrival in the pursuit of Trezeguet is a slightly odd one and he may not get the guaranteed first-team action he’s searching for if he ends up at Goodison Park.

The Egypt international is a dazzling wide player that is great with both feet, has electric pace, and can play on either flank.

He scored nine goals and supplied 10 assists in 38 games across all competitions last season to highlight his quality.

But Everton already have the likes of Bernard, Richarlison, Theo Walcott and Ademola Lookman as option sin wide areas.

Trezeguet is an exciting talent that could be a real hit in the Premier League with his direct style, but wouldn’t be a frontline signing for Marco Silva’s team.
