LaLiga chief confirms bids and Everton interest in striker | OneFootball

Almería CEO Mohamed El Assy has confirmed Everton’s interest in the race to sign El Bilal Touré.

The striker is attracting interest from several clubs just 12 months after helping the Rojiblancos consolidate their LaLiga return.

Sean Dyche’s side have been credited with an interest in Touré as they look to reinforce their attacking options for next season.

“It is not only that of Everton,” El Assy told Diario de Almería.

“Officially there are three clubs interested in El Bilal with formal offers on the table. Two of them are Italian and one is English.

“Now we are in the middle of negotiations, from what we will see, since we are not going to broadcast them in the media.”

Mali international Touré scored only seven goals for Almería last term but included a winning strike against Barcelona.
