Everton man wanted by both Brighton and Crystal Palace

According to reports, Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace will look to sign Everton striker Oumar Niasse when the transfer window opens in January.

After being handed a lifeline at Everton, Niasse made the most of the opportunities handed to him last week.

He scored during his club’s 3-0 Carabao Cup victory over Sunderland and then scored a brace as the Toffees claimed a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth on Saturday.

Since the player is currently scoring goals, manager Ronald Koeman may not sanction a sale should he keep up the good form. Niasse could rather end up remaining at the Toffees and becoming a key player of the side.

The 27-year-old was a target of the Premiership duo during the summer but the costs of added extras put a halt to any deal.

Everton fans will certainly be happy that a deal did not happen as the Senegal international looks like he could be a solution to the team’s goal scoring woes.
