Everton transfer news: Euro giants make move for Toffees star after Crystal Palace deal falls through

Fenerbahce have moved ahead in the race to sign Everton striker Oumar Niasse.

The Senegal international has been closely linked with a move away from the Mersyeside based club this summer.

Niasse has fallen out of favour with manager Ronald Koeman and has been omitted from the Dutch tactician’s squad for the season.

The 27-year-old had agreed a deal with Crystal Palace last night however, the Eagles were unable to get the deal over the line.

Fortunately for Fenerbahce, the Turkish transfer window doesn’t close until September 8.

According to the Turkish outlet Fanatik, Fenerbahce are set to table a €2 million offer to sign Niasse on a season-long loan. Per the source, the Yellow Canaries also want to include an option to buy within the deal.

Niasse is no stranger to the Turkish Super League. The Senegal international spent two seasons playing for Akhisar Belediyespor before earning himself a move to Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow.
