West Ham United, Everton vying for Jacob Bruun Larsen

West Ham United and Everton are reportedly looking to poach Jacob Bruun Larsen from relegated Premier League club Burnley.

According to a report by Danish outlet Bold, West Ham United and Everton are interested in Jacob Bruun Larsen. Burnley will look to complete a permanent move for the in-form attacker. And the two clubs want to take advantage of the Clarets’ relegation from the Premier League by signing the 25-year-old winger in the summer transfer window.

Jacob Bruun Larsen and his journey so far

Jacob Bruun Larsen endured a few frustrating campaigns before finding a stable footing at Burnley this season. A native of Lyngby, he spent most of his formative years in his hometown before graduating from the Borussia Dortmund youth division. While the Dane showed some promising signs at Borussia Dortmund and TSG Hoffenheim, he has stepped up at Burnley.

The 25-year-old has been a regular for Burnley this season, turning out 35 times while finding the back of the net seven times. However, Larsen’s future is uncertain after the Clarets suffered relegation from the Premier League. Burnley will look to complete a permanent move in the summer transfer window. However, he has other suitors from the top flight, with Everton and West Ham United interested.

A man in demand

Everton will look to complete a permanent deal for Jack Harrison in the summer transfer window. The Englishman also wants the move irrespective of Leeds United’s fate in the EFL Championship promotion playoffs. However, the Toffees should keep their options open, making the Burnley winger a viable target.

However, Everton will face stiff competition from West Ham United in the race to sign Jacob Bruun Larsen in the summer transfer window. Like the Merseyside club, the Hammers want a new wide attacker in the coming weeks amid uncertainties surrounding the futures of Lucas Paqueta and Mohammed Kudus.

Several candidates, including Wilfried Zaha, have thus emerged on West Ham’s radar over a possible move in the summer transfer window. Jacob Bruun Larsen’s name also features on their wishlist as they look to take advantage of Burnley’s relegation from the Premier League.

Everton and West Ham United’s interest in the 25-year-old Danish winger means he might look forward to an extended stay in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see what the future has in store for him.
