And both parties have successfully lodged bids with his French club.

Sulemana joined Rennes 18 months ago from Nordsjaelland for £17.5m.

He has six goals and four assists in 45 outings.

And at just 20 years old, Sulemana is tipped to develop into a top player.

He was first linked with a Premier League move in May 2021, with Manchester United and Liverpool both exploring moves.

Last summer, Newcastle made an enquiry for Sulemana after missing out on Leeds’ Jack Harrison.

But the Ghana international now looks set to finally make a move to England’s top flight.

Relegation battlers Everton are desperate for reinforcements after hiring Sean Dyche as their new boss.

The Toffees were on the brink of loaning Arnaut Danjuma from Villarreal last week, but saw the deal hijacked late on by Tottenham.

As for Southampton, they too are looking to beat the drop.

Nathan Jones has turned things around after a bad start at St Mary’s.

And Sulemana could arrive as a replacement for Che Adams, who is ironically wanted by Everton too.

Ex-Fulham man Moussa Dembele could also be on his way to the south coast for £2.6m from Lyon.
