Everton make move for Jarrod Bowen after West Ham relegation

Everton have made a preliminary move to sign West Ham winger Jarrod Bowen in the summer window. The Toffees have opened initial contact with the 29-year-old, who is expected to leave the London Stadium in the coming weeks to remain in the top flight. Bowen, West Ham's captain, wants a quick return to top-tier football after a disastrous collective season in the capital.

Everton are keen to advance talks swiftly, but the forward plans to assess all potential offers before settling on his long-term future. Manager David Moyes is targeting more attacking efficiency after a campaign in which no first-team player reached double figures in the league; Beto led the squad with nine goals.

Bowen's goal-creation record would directly address that shortfall. Individually Bowen finished with nine goals and 11 assists, a 20-goal contribution that still left him outside the England World Cup squad.
