Everton are reportedly interested in Eintracht Frankfurt winger Junior Dina Ebimbe as they aim to strengthen their squad this summer.
According to a recent tweet by RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins, Everton have shown interest in signing the French wide player during this transfer window.
Ebimbe’s Impressive Season in Germany
Ebimbe had a strong season at Eintracht Frankfurt, delivering a series of impressive performances on the right wing. The 23-year-old made 44 appearances for the German club last season, contributing 10 goals and 5 assists across all competitions.
The French winger was a consistent threat in the opposition half, averaging 1.7 shots, 0.6 key passes, and 1.4 dribbles per 90 minutes in the Bundesliga. He also demonstrated reliable passing skills, with a success rate of 76.2% in the German top flight (stats via whoscored).
With his contract at Eintracht Frankfurt running until the summer of 2027, it could be challenging for Everton to secure his services on a budget this transfer window.
What Could Ebimbe Bring to Everton?
Ebimbe is known for his powerful and accurate long-range shots and his ability to create scoring opportunities for his teammates. He’s a capable dribbler and can contribute with important goals and assists.
Primarily a right-winger, Ebimbe can also play on the left wing or as a centre-forward if needed. However, there are questions about how well he would adapt to Premier League football.
If signed, Ebimbe would add goals and creativity to Sean Dyche’s attacking options at Everton, potentially helping them push for a top-half finish in the Premier League next season.
At just 23 years old, Ebimbe has significant potential and could be a valuable long-term addition to Everton. Therefore, it would be wise for Dyche to make a strong effort to bring him to Goodison Park this summer.
