West Ham, Aston Villa join Everton in race for Ipswich Town attacker ahead of summer transfer window

3 Min Read

West Ham United and Aston Villa have reportedly joined Everton in the race for Ipswich Town attacker Omari Hutchinson this summer.

The 21-year-old played at Goodison Park versus the Toffees on Saturday afternoon, when the points were shared between the Tractor Boys and the hosts.

Hutchinson impressed on loan in the Championship at Portman Road last season from Chelsea, scoring a handful of wonder goals as Kieran McKenna‘s men secured promotion.

Signed permanently from Stamford Bridge for the top flight, Hutchinson has netted on three occasions and provided two assists across 28 league appearances.

Despite the best efforts of the young Englishman, Ipswich’s relegation is already confirmed, with three remaining fixtures before the season’s end.

West Ham, Villa want Ipswich’s Hutchinson?

According to CaughtOffside, Hutchinson’s permanent stay in East Anglia could be coming to a conclusion after just a year ahead of the summer window.

Firstly, the report claims that newly-promoted outfits Leeds United and Burnley are keen on securing the services of the 21-year-old during the off-season.

It is understood that Daniel Farke‘s side believe that Hutchinson could become a first-team regular at Elland Road in the Premier League for years to come.

There is also supposedly fondness of the attacker from West Ham and Villa, with the latter potentially able to offer the player European football next term.

Everton are another side interested in capturing Hutchinson, who is set to leave Ipswich following their relegation from the Premier League.
