Offered to Sunderland, West Ham interest, Everton swap deal: What future for Dovbyk?

Italian sources claim that West Ham are interested in Artem Dovbyk as a potential replacement for Milan-bound Niclas Fullkrug, but Sunderland and Everton have also been linked with the Roma striker.

Dovbyk is facing an uncertain future at Roma, as Football Italia reported on Sunday.

The Giallorossi coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, in fact, is unhappy with both the Ukraine international and Evan Ferguson so they pair could leave the Stadio Olimpico next month.

According to Gazzetta, Dovbyk has attracted interest from West Ham, who are looking for a replacement for Fullkrug as the German is set to undergo medical tests with Milan.

The Italian sports paper claims that Roma director Frederic Massara has offered Dovbyk to another Premier League club, Sunderland. The Black Cats already signed Enzo Le Fée from Roma last summer, and their football director Florent Ghisolfi is a former Giallorossi executive.

Gazzetta adds that Dovbyk could be included in a potential swap deal with Everton involving former Udinese striker Beto, although Roma’s main objective remains to sell Dovbyk outright. In the meantime, Giacomo Raspadori and, above all, Joshua Zirkzee, are Roma’s primary attacking targets for January.
