Everton chase Super Eagles winger Moses Simon in €15m transfer race

Super Eagles and Nantes winger, Moses Simon, is attracting interest from Everton ahead of the summer transfer window.

According to Africafoot, Everton have already sent scouts to observe Simon at FC Nantes in recent weeks, with the Super Eagles forward now among their priority targets.

The Toffees are currently 13th in the Premier League and are planning a rebuild, which makes them eye Moses as a valuable addition to their attacking options.

“Everton scouts have reportedly visited Stade de la Beaujoire in recent weeks to monitor the 29-year-old forward, currently playing for Nantes,” the website wrote.

Africafoot also reports that the player is open to a new challenge and has instructed his agent to facilitate a move to England and Nantes are not expected to stand in his way, but would demand at least €15m to sanction the transfer, even though his current market value is €12m.

“Nantes are not opposed to parting ways with the Super Eagle, but will only consider offers of at least €15 million,” they wrote.

The Nigerian International has 72 caps and 9 goals for Nigeria and has had a strong 2024/25 season with Nantes, registering 7 goals and 9 assists in 27 appearances across all competitions.

Having joined the French side from Levante in 2020 for €6.5m, he signed a contract extension last year that runs until June 2026.
