Everton, Leicester chasing Rubin Kazan star Sardar Azmoun

Rubin Kazan star Sardar Azmoun is ready to move to the UK this summer.

The People says Everton and Celtic lead a crowded field for the attacker's signature.

The 23-year-old is regarded as one of Europe's hottest prospects and is a man in demand this summer.

Leicester, Wolves and Fulham are also keen on the influential striker.

Despite his relative youth, Azmoun has already been capped 31 times for Iran and has scored 23 goals.

Although Everton are sniffing around, any raid could be dependent on Sam Allardyce's future at the club.

His position on Merseyside is looking increasingly precarious.
