Arsenal, Everton 'in the hunt for Odsonne Edouard'

Arsenal and Everton are both reportedly interested in signing Celtic forward Odsonne Edouard this summer.

Edouard has been in terrific form for Neil Lennon's side during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring 27 times and registering 19 assists in 45 appearances in all competitions.

The 22-year-old has managed 60 goals in 126 outings for the Scottish giants in all competitions, meanwhile, since joining from Paris Saint-Germain, initially on loan.

According to Le 10 Sport, both Arsenal and Everton are exploring the possibility of signing the Frenchman, who could cost in the region of £35m ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The Gunners are expected to be in the market for a new striker this summer regardless of whether club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang departs, while Toffees boss Carlo Ancelotti is also allegedly keen to boost his attack, with Lazio's Ciro Immobile linked with a move to Goodison Park.

Edouard's current deal with the Hoops will expire in the summer of 2022.
