Liverpool, Everton, West Ham United, AFC Bournemouth and Burnley have their eyes set on the Danish market.
That’s according to Indkast, who reports scouts from Liverpool and Bayern Munich were in the attendance during FC Midtjylland’s 6-0 win over FC Nordsjaelland last weekend. It’s claimed officials from Everton, West Ham, Bournemouth and Burnley were also present.
Everton have been keeping a close watch on FC Midtjylland for most part of this season because of Franculino Djú. Liverpool, West Ham, Bournemouth and Burnley could have also taken a look at the striker.
Last week, Tipsbladet stated the Danish club have set at €35m price for Franculino. They also reported his agent is trying to push for a transfer in the winter market while his club are aiming for a sale next summer. David Moyes’ side are keen.
As well as the five Premier League sides, Indkast claims the City Football Group, who own Manchester City, had an official present at the MCH Arena on Sunday.
Franculino, 21, impressed by scoring a brace, while Darío Osorio and Aral Şimşir had each managed a goal and an assist against Nordsjaelland.
Indkast makes no mention of players that Liverpool, Everton, West Ham, Bournemouth and Burnley were monitoring.
Over at Campo, they report Liverpool followed Midtjylland’s home win over Nordsjaelland. They suspect the Reds, and other clubs could have come to watch Franculino, Osorio and Şimşir.
