Everton Manager, Ronald Koeman is already shopping for a replacement for wantaway Striker, Romelu Lukaku and the Dutch tactician seems to have found a suitable goal poacher in Henry Onyekuru.
Koeman secured Europa League qualification for Everton next season, but could be without the 24-year-old Belgian, who is wanted by Chelsea and Manchester United.
The Toffees will need some firepower up front, if Lukaku eventually leaves Goodison and per Oluwashina Okeleji [BBC Sport] Koeman is in the race for the 19-year-old Onyekuru.
Onyekuru has scored 23 goals this season; in all competitions, in his first season in Europe.
