Everton, Newcastle weigh up January move for Arsenal attacker Nicolas Pepe

Everton and Newcastle are weighing up a January move for Arsenal attacker Nicolas Pepe.

The 26-year-old joined the Gunners for a club-record £72m in 2019 but has seen his playing time reduced in recent weeks.

This has led to interest from Everton, says JeunesFooteux, who are apparently looking to seal a loan move in January, with an option to buy included.

Newcastle and Crystal Palace are also mentioned in the report, as the winger has made just one start in Arsenal's last six league games.

Pepe has struggled to replicate the type of form that saw him score 22 goals and assist 11 in his final league season with French club Lille, since moving to the Premier League.
