Everton are one of the clubs showing an interest in West Ham United’s Jarrod Bowen.

A real opportunity is opening up for a number of clubs to prise away some quality assets from either West Ham or Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

David Moyes knows all too well just how good Bowen is and the prospect of the winger becoming available will appeal to the 63-year-old.

Two games to go… where do you see Everton actually finishing in the table? 😫

Europe now feels incredibly unlikely… 👋

What Jack Grealish said about Everton target Jarrod Bowen

Everton are keeping tabs on Bowen alongside the likes of Liverpool and Newcastle United, amid West Ham’s threat of relegation.

He is a player who is known well by a number of people at Finch Farm, with Grealish previously hailing the West Ham forward.

“The quality we [England] have in the attacking areas, especially on the wing, is maybe the best in world football. It’ll be a tough decision for the manager because there’s so much talent in those spaces,” Grealish previously told The Times.

Would you rather Everton sign Summerville or Bowen this summer? 👀

West Ham wingers Crysencio Summerville and Jarrod Bowen.

“There’s [Bukayo] Saka, [Phil] Foden, [Marcus] Rashford, myself. Jarrod Bowen has been on fire and now he’s here. There’s people who aren’t here like Raheem [Sterling, ignored] and [Eberechi] Eze got injured.”

Despite playing for a struggling West Ham side, Bowen has still been able to provide a solid return for the Irons this season.

Eight goals and 10 assists in the Premier League is a seriously impressive return for a player whose side are on course to be playing second-tier football from August.

Everton need more game-winners added to the squad

Sunday’s draw against Crystal Palace showed exactly why Everton need a player like Bowen in their squad.

Beto produced a moment of magic to score in the second-half, but Everton’s other forwards looked toothless in front of goal.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Iliman Ndiaye have enjoyed solid seasons, but there is a real lack of game-winners elsewhere in the squad.

Bowen has shown over consecutive seasons that he is capable of providing double-figure goal contributions.

Having another goal threat to spread the load across is exactly what the Toffees could do with this summer.
