EVERTON FACE TRIPLE THREAT FOR MIDFIELDER

The 33-year-old was a key player for Germany as they won the 2014 FIFA World Cup tournament in Brazil, beating a Lionel Messi-led Argentina 1-0 in the final of the tournament which was settled in extra time.

Italian transfer news outlet Calciomercato has been reporting the number of clubs’ keen to sign Sami Khedira when he leaves Juventus next year and Everton are one of those clubs. The latest report from the same platform has disclosed that three Championship teams are also interested in the former Bayern Munich player.

It was stated that the Championship trio of Bournemouth, Norwich City and Watford want to sign the highly experienced player.
Bournemouth, Watford and Norwich City all suffered relegation from the Premier League at the end of last season and they are all having a good season in the second tier of English football. Norwich City are the Championship leaders at the moment, while Bournemouth are closely followed in second place. Watford are just outside the playoff spots in seventh position on the log. The first two teams will go through to the Premier League for next season, while the playoffs will decide the final team amongst the four clubs from third to sixth.
Calciomercato confirmed that Khedira will most likely leave Turin in January and that Everton are preparing a bid for him. The three Championship teams are also weighing up bids for him. Sami Khedira has previously talked about English football as he revealed that he would like to experience it. Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti and Tottenham Hotspur boss Jose Mourinho are two managers that he would like to play for. London club West Ham United are also interested in him.
Juventus are likely to release him from his contract at the club in January which is some months earlier than its expiration date.
