Per the source, Calhanoglu wants to play in England or Spain next season.
We took a look at how Everton fans reacted to reports of being in a three-way battle to sign Calhanoglu on social media.

Do you really need a better reason? commentators still haven’t figured out how to pronounce Emre Can so we aren’t sure how they will get on with Calhanoglu.
His name is actually pronounced Chal-han-or-luh.
Sign him just for his name

Hahahahahaha, and you just know there will be a kebab shop round the ground with special on for him ?

Everton fans generally seem pretty keen on Calhanoglu joining the club over the summer.
The Bundesliga giants reportedly want £22 million [€25m] for the 23-year-old which is below his £32.5 million release clause.
A bargain!
And he would probably become the first Turkish international player to join the Toffees. Perhaps Leon Osman who is of Turkish origin could help settle him in if he were to make the move!
A Turkish Delight ??

Pickford, Klaasen, Sandro, possibly Keane an even Calhanoglu before the windows even opened? Laughing

Be amazed if we are even in the running to sign Hakan Çalhanoğlu. Outstanding player at Bayer Leverkusen. Reported €25m price tag #Everton

Cheaper alternative to Sigurdsson perhaps? Quality player that’s also deadly from set pieces?!…..

Everton scored 12 goals from set-pieces last season which is not bad but could definitely be improved upon.
At least he would sort out our set piece issues
