Everton are considering a move for Juventus winger Timothy Weah, but will reportedly face competition from Leeds United and Bournemouth after he rejected a move to Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
TEAMtalk transfer correspondent Rudy Galetti confirmed Everton\u2019s interest in Weah on June 20<\/a> and a move away from Juventus growing increasingly likely, putting Premier League clubs on alert.<\/p>\n The United States international was left out of Juventus\u2019 squad for their FIFA Club World Cup clash against Manchester City, as the Italian club wanted to sell him to Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n According to\u00a0Gazzetta dello Sport<\/a>, Juventus were planning to sell Weah and Samuel Mbangula to Nottingham Forest for a combined fee of \u20ac25 million (\u00a321m\/$29m).<\/p>\n Weah, however, is said to have rejected the move to Forest. His agent,\u00a0Badou Sambague, subsequently hit back at Juventus on social media.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a disgrace. Weah is a fantastic player and fantastic team-mate. To see people acting like this for money and because they are selfish has disappointed me a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n The 25-year-old USMNT star, who has notched seven goals and seven assists in 78 appearances for Juventus, could still be on the move, and Everton are among three other Premier League clubs keen on signing him.<\/p>\n READ MORE<\/strong>:\u00a0Everton launch enquiry for electric Ligue 1 star to spark Liverpool transfer battle \u2013 sources<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Everton, Leeds and Bournemouth keen on Timothy Weah<\/strong><\/p>\n As per an update from Ed Aarons, journalist for The Guardian, Everton<\/a> are keeping close tabs on Weah\u2019s situation \u2013 confirming TEAMtalk\u2019s report on June 20 \u2013 along with Leeds and Bournemouth<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cEverton, Leeds<\/a> and Bournemouth are understood to be interested in signing Timothy Weah after he rejected a move to Nottingham Forest,\u201d Aarons posted on X.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cUSA forward was left out of the Juventus squad on Thursday after they had agreed a deal to sell him and Samuel Mbangula to Forest.\u201d<\/p>\n Everton are prioritising the signing of a new winger as David Moyes looks to fill the void left by Jack Harrison and Jesper Lindstrom, who will both return to their parent clubs.<\/p>\n The Toffees have launched an enquiry for Lyon star Malick Fofana, as TEAMtalk exclusively revealed<\/a>, but it will be a tough race to win amid mounting competition.<\/p>\n As TEAMtalk has consistently reported,\u00a0West Brom\u2019s Tom Fellows and Liverpool youngster Ben Doak<\/a>\u00a0are also admired by Everton.
