Youssef Chermiti, the talented 19-year-old striker of Tunisian origin, is considering a loan move away from Everton in search of playing time and developmental opportunities. Despite his impressive physical stature, standing at 1.92 meters, the young forward has seen limited action in the Premier League, accumulating only 181 minutes on the field since the commencement of the current season.
Transferred from Sporting Lisbon to Everton last summer for a notable sum of 15 million euros, Chermiti is eager to seek opportunities that would allow him to showcase his skills and gain valuable experience.
His desire for active participation on the field has prompted interest from several clubs seeking to bolster their attacking options.
Lecce and Birmingham City have emerged as potential suitors for Chermiti’s loan deal.
Both clubs have reportedly reached out to the player’s father, who also serves as his agent, to explore the prospect of securing the young striker’s services during the ongoing transfer window.
Although no official offers have been received as of yet, Chermiti appears open to the idea of a loan move, with a preference for the Italian track.
Currently valued at 9 million euros according to Transfermarkt, Youssef Chermiti’s promising talent has not gone unnoticed.
With Tunisian origins on his father’s side, the Tunisian Football Federation, represented by its sports director Mohamed Slim Ben Othman, has been actively monitoring Chermiti’s progress.
As the young forward contemplates the next chapter in his career, the loan move presents itself as a pivotal opportunity for Chermiti to further hone his skills and contribute significantly on the pitch.
The football community eagerly awaits the resolution of his potential loan destination, where the emerging talent aims to make a lasting impact.
