Everton are eyeing swoops for Danish duo Nicolai Jorgensen and Kasper Dolberg, according to a BT report. 

The Danish media outlet claims Toffees manager Ronald Koeman is interested in Feyenoord striker Jorgensen and has scouted him in the past when he managed in Holland.

It is said Everton are lining up an £18million bid for the 26-year-old striker, who impressed in his first season with Feyenoord.

The report states that Koeman is also weighing up a swoop for Ajax striker Dolberg.

However, a move for the 19-year-old is unlikely, as he and his agent Yalcin Sarica have decided that he will stay at Ajax for another season.

Jorgensen joined Feyenoord last summer from FC Copenhagen for £3million, and he went on to score 25 goals in 42 appearances in all competitions, as well as providing 17 assists.

The 6″3 front man was particularly impressive in the Eredivisie, as he spearheaded his club’s march to the title, scoring 21 goals in 32 league outings.

Meanwhile, Dolberg, burst onto the scene at Ajax last term by netting 23 goals in 48 league and cup games.

The 19-year-old striker only broke into the club’s first team last summer, but he has already become a key player and he starred in their run to the Europa League final, bagging six goals in 13 appearances.

Everton already look to be searching for potential replacements for Romelu Lukaku, who could leave this summer, and this pair Danish internationals seem to have caught Koeman’s eye.
