Everton are reportedly keen on signing 18-year-old Arsenal striker Omari Benjamin in the summer transfer window.
A report from Football Insider has claimed that Everton are lining up a summer offer to sign 18-year-old Arsenal attacker Omari Benjamin. But it is unclear if the North Londoners are ready to part ways with him in the summer transfer window.
Benjamin has had a trial with Everton in the past, and it seems that the Toffees are impressed with his abilities. It will be interesting to see if they can groom him into a Premier League-level attacker in the coming seasons.
Benjamin is unlikely to get first-team opportunities at Arsenal, and it makes sense for him to move on in the summer. If Everton can provide him with the opportunities he needs it would be the ideal move for him. If he manages to impress with regular game time at Everton, he will have plenty of opportunities to join big clubs in the near future.
Arsenal need to sign a striker
Meanwhile, Arsenal need to sign a quality striker at the end of the season as well. Players like Eddie Nketiah, Emile Smith Rowe, and Reiss Nelson have been linked with exits from the club as well. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can get rid of the fringe players and bring in a quality striker who can improve them in the final third.
Meanwhile, Omari Benjamin is still only 18, and he is likely to improve further with coaching and experience. He could develop into a key player for Everton in the coming seasons. The Toffees need attacking reinforcements, and the 18-year-old could be the ideal understudy to Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Everton have had a disappointing season so far, and they are currently fighting to secure survival in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see if they can preserve their status as a Premier League club for the next season.
Players like Omari Benjamin will want to compete at the highest level, and if Everton go down to the EFL Championship in the summer, they might not be too keen on the move. It will be interesting to see if Everton can finish the season strongly and secure safety from relegation.
