Everton is among several clubs closely monitoring Marseille's interest in Algerian forward Amine Gouiri, as per a report from L'Équipe. The 26-year-old has not yet committed his future to Olympique de Marseille, despite having scored 21 goals in 42 games for the Ligue 1 club since his arrival in January 2025. Although Marseille would prefer to keep the forward, who is popular among the club's supporters, they are required to generate funds through player sales before the transfer window closes.
Several other clubs have shown interest in Gouiri, with Atletico Madrid and Villarreal among the favorites if OM choose to offload one of their attackers. Como and Lazio have also made enquiries about the player. Everton's managing director, Bruno Genesio, hopes to retain Gouiri, but the French club may struggle to resist a competitive offer.
