Premier League clubs alerted to Youssef En-Nesyri availability?

Premier League clubs are reportedly interested in a move for Sevilla striker Youssef En-Nesyri ahead of the summer transfer window.

The 26-year-old has enjoyed a productive season for the Spanish club, netting 10 goals and providing one assist in 25 La Liga matches during 2023-24.

En-Nesyri and Sevilla currently occupy 14th place in the La Liga standings - a downturn in form compared to last season, when they finished 12th in the top flight.

Since securing a switch to Sevilla from fellow Spanish side Leganes in January 2020, the Morrocan has made 188 appearances for the club, scoring on 67 occasions.

The forward is also a regular for his national side, netting 18 times in 56 matches since making his debut on the international stage in July 2016.

Premier League interest in Sevilla's En-Nesyri?

According to Spanish outlet Marca, Sevilla's En-Nesyri is attracting interest from a number of clubs around the European game ahead of the summer window.

The report claims that - among those around the continent - a selection of Premier League outfits are keen on the 26-year-old striker, who scored 18 goals last season.

It has not been disclosed which sides are fond of En-Nesyri ahead of the summer trading point, however those clubs could become apparent in the coming weeks.

En-Nesyri contract at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan expires at the conclusion of the 2024-25 campaign, meaning that he could leave for free in the summer of 2025.

However, it is understood that Sevilla wish to part ways with the striker for a transfer fee in order to fund a rebuild of Quique Sanchez Flores's side.

Sevilla struggles

Despite enjoying an ultimate success in the Europa League last season, Sevilla have endured a difficult last two years under a mixture of management.

Although the likes of Sergio Ramos dwell within Flores's side, the seven-time Europa League winners currently sit 14th in La Liga, just six points above relegation.

Los Nervionenses secured three-straight fourth-placed finishes between 2020 and 2022 but are now on course for back-to-back bottom-half placements in Spain's top flight.

En-Nesyri is leading his side's goalscoring ranks by a long distance, having netted 10 La Liga goals, six more than Lucas Ocampos in second place.
