Everton is reportedly among the clubs considering a move for 21-year-old Moroccan midfielder Bilal El Khannouss from Leicester City, who has a £22.5m relegation release clause. Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, and Sunderland are also said to be interested. Earlier in the summer, El Khannouss had been linked with Arsenal, but it was reported that talks did not progress. His impressive performances last season, despite Leicester's relegation, have reportedly made him a standout target for several Premier League clubs. Everton, along with Nottingham Forest and Sunderland, are particularly keen on the player, following the revelation of his release clause. His contract with Leicester is said to run until 2028, and his current market value is reported to be €28.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
