Though both Premier League sides could use some extra help up top, they each spent club-record fees on a new striker this past summer, so they will likely be reluctant to fork over the €25m that Villarreal seek.

The pacey striker, who can also play out wide, is currently under contract until 2023 and was purchased from Ligue 1 side Angers for €18m in summer 2018.

Earlier in the month, it’s believed the LaLiga outfit rejected a €12m bid from Lyon.
