Everton and West Ham United are thought to be interested in signing the Benfica striker Haris Seferovic.

According to Portuguese newspaper O Jogo, the two Premier League clubs have been in touch regarding a summer transfer and they could come forward with a concrete offer soon.

The 29-year-old had an impressive season with Benfica last year and he managed to score 26 goals and pick up seven assists across all competitions.

Apparently, the player is valued at around 25 million this summer, but the Portuguese outfit could be willing to negotiate a lower asking price.

Everton need to bring in a quality partner for Dominic Calvert-Lewin and the experienced Switzerland forward seems like a good fit.

He is a proven goal scorer and he could improve the Everton attack for a reasonable price.

The Toffees will be hoping to qualify for European football next season and they will need to add more quality and depth to their attack in order to climb up the table.

Similarly, the Hammers have been reliant on Michail Antonio for goals last season and they will have to find an upgrade this summer.

The 31-year-old West Ham ace is not a natural goal scorer and Seferovic would be a superb alternative.

The player has recently been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur as well and it appears that Nuno Espirito Santo has identified the player as a target for his new club.

Seferovic has already proven himself in the Portuguese league and he might be tempted to try out a new challenge in the Premier League now.
