Friedkins set to land Albert Gudmundsson amid strong interest from Everton.

Genoa striker Albert Gudmundsson could make a Premier League move to Everton this transfer window.

David Moyes could soon lose Dominic Calvert-Lewin, whose contract is set to expire at the end of June. With uncertainty surrounding Everton’s attacking options, attention has turned to Genoa striker Albert Gudmundsson, who spent last season on loan at Fiorentina and is eager for a move to the Premier League.

Everton have shown serious interest in the 28-year-old Iceland international, and according to *TuttoMercatoWeb* (23 June), they can’t be ruled out in the race for his signature. Gudmundsson has made it clear he wants to play in England, making the Toffees a strong contender.

While Roma have also placed Gudmundsson high on their wishlist, The Friedkin Group—owners of Roma—could instead pursue his signing for Everton. A potential move to the Merseyside club wouldn’t be surprising, especially with the Blues in need of a fresh option up front.

Moyes had targeted Liam Delap before his move to Chelsea, and Villarreal’s Thierno Barry is now being linked, with his £34 million release clause possibly in play. Meanwhile, the futures of Youssef Chermiti and Beto remain uncertain, adding to the urgency of strengthening the squad.

Although Gudmundsson’s stats last season—6 goals and 2 assists in 24 Serie A matches—weren’t headline-grabbing, his proven quality over the years still makes him a valuable option. Whether he ends up at Everton or Roma, his next move will be one to watch.
