Everton are reportedly lining up an ambitious summer move for Fulham’s in-form winger Harry Wilson, with the Merseyside club ready to rival a host of Premier League sides for his signature.
The Welsh international has been one of Fulham’s most influential figures this season, delivering eight goals and four assists across 25 league outings. His sharp end product and consistency have made him a standout performer at Craven Cottage — and now placed him firmly on the radar of several top-flight clubs.
Contract Stand-Off Sparks Transfer Interest
Wilson’s current deal with Fulham F.C. is set to expire at the end of the campaign. While Fulham are eager to secure an extension, negotiations have yet to produce an agreement. As it stands, the 28-year-old could walk away on a free transfer this summer — an opportunity that has intensified interest across the division.
Everton tested the waters in January with what has been described as a “cheeky” enquiry, but Fulham quickly dismissed the approach. That hasn’t cooled the Toffees’ admiration, however, and they are expected to return with renewed intent once the window reopens.

Moyes Keen to Reinforce Wide Options
Manager David Moyes remains open to bolstering his attacking options out wide, despite already reshaping the flanks this season.
Everton brought in:
Jack Grealish (loan from Manchester City F.C.)
Tyler Dibling
Tyrique George (loan from Chelsea F.C.)
Grealish initially made a strong impact but has since been ruled out for the remainder of the season with injury. Everton are interested in keeping him permanently but are reluctant to trigger a reported £50 million buy clause, instead exploring a reduced fee or another temporary deal.
Dibling has found the adjustment to life on Merseyside challenging, while George is still settling in, despite Everton holding an option to buy.
Given that context, Wilson is viewed as a proven and ready-made solution — particularly given his recent “red-hot” run of form.
Fierce Competition Expected
Interest in Wilson is widespread. Leeds United F.C. are also tracking the winger, though their pursuit may depend on Premier League survival. Nottingham Forest F.C., Sunderland A.F.C., and Aston Villa F.C. have likewise been credited with admiration.
Reports suggest Wilson would be open to relocating to the north-west, a factor that could strengthen Everton’s position in what is shaping up to be a wide-open race.

Decisive Period Ahead
With Fulham still hopeful of persuading Wilson to commit his future to the club, the coming months promise to be pivotal. If a new contract fails to materialise, Everton — alongside several rivals — will be poised to pounce on what could prove one of the bargain deals of the summer window.
