Everton and West Ham are both interested in signing £40m Man United player
Both Everton and West Ham United could offer Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof a route to stay in England this summer, TBR Football can exclusively reveal.
Lindelof arrived at Man United three years after current Everton boss David Moyes was let go at Old Trafford, a Jose Mourinho signing in 2017.
At the time, Mourinho said he was happy to welcome a ‘very talented young player’ to the club, but after 273 appearances Lindelof is now set to leave on a free transfer when his contract expires in the summer.
A number of clubs on the continent have shown an interest in signing Lindelof, however the Sweden international might also get the opportunity to continue his stay in the Premier League.

In fact, Lindelof’s former club Benfica, who United paid to sign the defender from, have also discussed a possible return to Portugal.
However, English sides could compete for the United defender’s signature with both Everton and West Ham leading the way in that regard as things stand.
TBR can also share that Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers are keeping tabs on Lindelof’s situation, who seems unlikely to be short of suitors.

And when speaking over the break via the , Lindelof perhaps alluded to his wish to continue playing football in England’s top flight.
Lindelof said: “I’m very comfortable in United. I’ve been there for a long time and it’s the world’s best league.
“I’ll have to talk to everyone involved going forward.”
An underrated talent by some estimations, and someone who might still have a lot to give under Moyes or Graham Potter, should their respective clubs push forward with their interest.
