Premier League side Everton have asked Stade Rennais about taking Ghana international Kamaldeen Sulemana on an initial loan, reports the Daily Mail.
The 20-year-old winger was on Newcastle’s list but his £40million price tag put the Magpies off.
Nevertheless, Sulemana is open to leaving Rennais during the January transfer window and could join Everton – who are currently fighting a relegation battle.
Toffees manager Frank Lampard is hoping Sulemana – who joined Rennais in the summer of 2021 from FC Nordsjaelland – will strengthen his forward line.
However, Everton face stiff competition from Augsburg and Bournemouth for Sulemana’s services – despite the fact he has struggled with injuries this season.
Kamaldeen Sulemana played less than 60 minutes at the 2022 World Cup after struggling with an ankle injury which he sustained just 18 days before the tournament.
