Nurnberg striker Uzun welcomes Everton, Brighton interest

Everton target Can Uzun has spoken out regarding transfer speculation about his future.

The 18-year-old Turkey youth international is impressing with FC Nurnberg in the 2. Bundesliga this season.

Per European media reports, Uzun is a target for Bayern Munich, Brighton, and Everton.

He stated recently, “It's good when people talk about me and I want it to stay that way. But you can't even think about something like that on the pitch

“You can only focus on what is happening on the pitch now. As I said, I'm focusing entirely on now and the season with Nürnberg. And we'll see the rest at the end of the season."

Nürnberg's sporting director Olaf Rebbe added: “It's always good when a sought-after player achieves such performances. But it has long been known in the football industry what qualities Can has. I find it rather impressive how he puts football at the middle of all the headlines. And that's exactly what it should be about now."
