Everton to rival Man United for Cengiz Under?

Everton could reportedly battle Manchester United for the signature of Roma attacker Cengiz Under during this summer's transfer window.

The 22-year-old has scored three goals in 21 appearances for his Italian club during the 2019-20 campaign, while he has netted 17 times in 86 outings in total since arriving from Turkish football in 2017.

A recent report claimed that United were interested in the Turkey international and had sent scouts to watch him in action during the current season.

However, according to Corriere dello Sport, Everton are firmly in the running for the attacker, who could allegedly be available for as little as €30m (£27.3m).

The report claims that Napoli are also in the hunt, with the Italian club's head coach Gennaro Gattuso viewing Under as the ideal player to boost his attack.

The former Altinordu youngster has a contract at Stadio Olimpico until June 2023.
