Milwall striker Mihailo Ivanovic\u2019s potential has been spotted by Everton and several other top-flight clubs this summer, sources have told Football Insider.<\/strong><\/p>\n Speaking on the latest edition of\u00a0Football Insider\u2019s Inside Track podcast<\/strong><\/a>, senior correspondent Pete O\u2019Rourke revealed what his sources have told him about\u00a0Ivanovic\u2019s chances of a transfer this summer.<\/p>\n The 20-year-old scored 13 goals over 40 appearances in all competitions last season after a \u00a32.8million move from Vojvodina, and that form has attracted attention from the Premier League<\/a> duo and beyond.<\/p>\n Everton are in the market for a new striker after Dominic Calvert-Lewin\u2019s much-anticipated departure on a free transfer<\/a>, and sources w told Football Insider <\/strong>that both they and Wolves<\/a> are big fans of Ivanovic.<\/p>\n Millwall are already anticipating the cut-price exit of Japhet Tanganga<\/a>, but Football Insider <\/strong>sources have said that Alex Neil\u2019s side will demand \u201cbig, big money\u201d if they are forced to sell Ivanovic this summer.<\/p>\n Lazio<\/a> are another side keen on Ivanovic after they also missed out on European football next season, but Everton are confident they can sign Ivanovic as they close in on a deal for Villarreal\u2019s Thierno Barry<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n MORE FOOTBALL INSIDER STORIES<\/p>\n Millwall resigned to Ivanovic exit as Everton, Wolves pounce<\/strong><\/p>\n Football Insider<\/strong> revealed on 14 June that Everton would have to spend close to \u00a335m to sign Barry as their new number nine this summer<\/a>, and Ivanovic would give David Moyes further options up front.<\/p>\n Speaking on the new Inside Track<\/a><\/strong>, O\u2019Rourke said that Millwall<\/a> will struggle to keep hold of Ivanovic this summer despite his long-term contract, as top-level Premier League and European sides prepare offers.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not surprised that there\u2019s growing interest in Ivanovic\u201d, he told Football Insider.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s a player with huge potential and that\u2019s maybe what Everton have spotted.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019ll be a number of clubs looking at him. Wolves have been, and even Lazio as well \u2013 so for Millwall, they could have a fight on their hands to keep hold of Ivanovic.<\/p>\n \u201cIf Millwall were to sell him, they\u2019ll be looking at big, big money \u2013\u00a0when these Premier League and top European clubs come calling, Millwall will find it hard to keep hold of him.<\/p>\n \u201cIt doesn\u2019t surprise me that Premier League clubs are looking at him, and Millwall will be fearing the worst \u2013 they could end up losing him this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n Although Everton<\/a> are close to making Barry their first statement signing of a new era on Merseyside, the exits of Calvert-Lewin and Chelsea loanee Armando Broja leaves several gaps to fill<\/a> in their attack.<\/p>\n Scouring the Championship for its best talent has long been a successful strategy of Moyes<\/a>\u2018, and fans will hope that if they win the race for Ivanovic, he can replicate the impact of Tim Cahill or Jarrod Bowen<\/a>.<\/p>\n Cahill<\/a> became a club legend at Goodison Park after his own move from Millwall in 2004, and if Moyes uses part of his \u00a370m transfer budget<\/a> to sign Ivanovic this summer, he\u2019ll have the chance to write his own legacy at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Related Posts<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"(Credit: Imago) Sat 5 July 2025 9:00, UK Milwall striker Mihailo Ivanovic\u2019s potential has been spotted by Everton…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":239771,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4100],"tags":[11817,94,22170,93283,55454,59692,79,16,15,5774],"class_list":{"0":"post-239770","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-everton","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-lazio","11":"tag-mihailo-ivanovic","12":"tag-millwall","13":"tag-pete-orourke","14":"tag-sports","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom","17":"tag-wolves"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114799970305494702","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/239770","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=239770"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/239770\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/239771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=239770"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=239770"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=239770"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Dominic](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Everton-Dominic-Calvert-Lewin-1024x576.png\")
