Crystal Palace, Everton, West Ham United vying for Armin Gigovic

Crystal Palace, Everton, and West Ham United are reportedly interested in signing 22-year-old Bosnian international Armin Gigovic this summer.

According to a report by Football Insider, Armin Gigovic is gaining popularity in England heading into the summer transfer window. The Bosnian international has risen in stature after his superb showing on his debut against the Three Lions. Crystal Palace, Everton, and West Ham United are interested in the young midfielder.

Who is Armin Gigovic?

Armin Gigovic is a native of Lund and spent his formative years in Sweden. He also turned out for the country in age-group football and made his senior debut for the country last year. However, the 22-year-old has switched nationalities, making his bow for Bosnia and Herzegovina this month.

The youngster produced an impressive performance on his debut for Bosnia against England. Meanwhile, Gigovic has spent the last 18 months at FC Midtjylland, temporarily leaving FK Rostov. He has turned out over 50 times for Midtjylland, chipping in with one goal and three assists.

However, Gigovic has likely played his final game for Midtjylland, with a loan spell in England on the cards. The player’s performance against England has alerted many Premier League clubs, with Crystal Palace, Everton, and West Ham United vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.

Premier League move on the horizon?

Crystal Palace will delve into the market for a midfielder this summer amid uncertainties around the future of Will Hughes. So, several candidates, including Batista Mendy, have emerged on their radar. As for Everton, the Merseyside club will likely part ways with Amadou Onana in the summer transfer window.

So, the Toffees need a new midfielder, with Armin Gigovic emerging as a viable target. Meanwhile, West Ham United are in a spot of bother over Lucas Paqueta’s long-term future in the game. In addition, Tomas Soucek’s importance has reduced. So, Gigovic is an option worth considering for West Ham.

A loan move might be on the cards before Gigovic leaves FK Rostov as a free agent next summer. So, that makes the 22-year-old Bosnian international an appealing target heading into this summer’s transfer window.
