Everton are showing interest in Newcastle United winger Yankuba Minteh.

The 19-year old has enjoyed a stand out season on loan at Feyenoord in Holland scoring 11 goals - ten in the league.

He joined Newcastle from Danish side OB last year for £6million and was immediately sent out on loan. The Gambia international gained Champions League experience and ended the season by winning the Dutch Cup but was sent off in the process.


Eddie Howe has praised Minteh's progress and while Feyenoord are keen on another loan, the player's ambition is to play in the Premier League.

Everton have posted an interest in Minteh but are unsure what their financial position will be at this stage.

Minteh told Dutch football magazine Voetbal International last month: 'Ultimately, the Premier League is my goal. Newcastle United is the club that have a lot of confidence in me. I have no idea what the future looks like.

'I was in Newcastle once, when they played against Borussia Dortmund. I will hear soon what plans the club has for me. I'm still young, I have time, maybe they want to loan me out again.

'I don't know yet, I'll hear about it. I'll let everything happen to me. I know only that one day I will play in the Premier League (for Newcastle United).'

Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise is attracting interest from several top Premier League clubs

Another added ingredient is that Newcastle like Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin though their immediate forward priority is Michael Olise from Crystal Palace

The French winger is also wanted by Manchester United and Chelsea and has a clause which is understood to be around £45m but with add ons up to £60m.
