Everton hoping to sign Nigerian forward: A good option for Sean Dyche?

Everton Football Club is reportedly eyeing Samuel Chukwueze, the talented Nigerian forward from Villarreal.

The Toffees are aware that avoiding relegation is crucial to make the transfer a possibility.

Chukwueze has had an impressive season for Villarreal, scoring 13 goals and providing 11 assists in 40 matches across all competitions.
