Transfer: Everton keen on signing Awoniyi

Premier League outfit Everton are reportedly considering a move for Nigerian international Taiwo Awoniyi.

The former Union Berlin striker has struggled to secure playing time this season under Nuno Espirito Santo.

The 27-year-old has managed 17 Premier League appearances, mostly coming on as a substitute.

The Super Eagles striker has fallen on the attacking pecking order to in-form Chris Wood, who has netted 14 goals in 22 Premier League games for the Tricky Trees.

There have been reports linking Awoniyi with a move away from the City Grounds with the Toffees becoming the latest club to express interest in the services of the striker.

Awoniyi has also been linked with a move to West Ham United.
