Everton is interested in signing Japanese international attacker Takefusa Kubo during the summer transfer period.
According to Fitches, Everton plans to file a 30 million euro bid to sign the 24-year-old attacker. He’s done very well for Real Sociedad and has linked to multiple clubs in recent seasons.
Takefusa Kubo improves Everton
It will be interesting to see if Everton can make the deal. They have come well to improve their attacking forces by signing Tierno Barry from Villarreal. According to a report from The New York Times, all players will be in medical care in Merseyside costumes.
It appears they want to sign Japan International to play with Barry next season. It will be interesting to see if they can get trades across the line.
Kubo is highly regarded throughout Europe, and he is labelled as the future “superstar.” He has all the tools to develop into a quality Premier League attacker. He can act as a winger on the right and as a central offensive midfielder. His versatility and technical capabilities could prove to be invaluable to Everton.
Everton needs improvement
If they want to fight for the top half location, they will need to improve their team this summer. They are one of the largest clubs in the country, but they have been fighting a relegation battle in recent seasons. They will bounce back strong next season, and quality players like Kubo will help them.
The opportunity to move into the Premier League is extremely exciting for a 24-year-old. The former Real Madrid attacker has the qualities that impressed him with British football. He wants to use Everton as a platform to demonstrate his capabilities at the highest level.
