According to TEAMtalk, Everton have scouted Birmingham City forward Che Adams in recent weeks with the view to a move at the end of the season.

What's the story, then?

It is not too difficult to understand why teams are looking at Adams.

Indeed, the 22-year-old is enjoying an excellent campaign for the Blues, finding the back of the net on 19 occasions in 32 Championship appearances.

Manchester United and Arsenal have both previously been linked with the forward, but it seems more likely that Adams will end up at a top-flight team outside of the top six.

According to TEAMtalk, Everton are very much in the race for the striker, who will seemingly have a big decision to make at the end of the season.

The fact that Adams has a contract with Birmingham until 2022 places the Championship outfit in a good position when it comes to negotiation, though.

What would Adams bring to Everton?

Well, goals is the obvious thing. This is quite comfortably Adams' best season in terms of finding the back of the net, having struck seven and nine respectively in his two previous campaigns at St Andrew's.

Everton are in desperate need of a new attacker having watched Cenk Tosun and Dominic Calvert-Lewin struggle for goals this season.

Richarlison, despite criticism, has been a good addition, though, and the lively Adams could complement the Brazilian in the final third of the field.

The Goodison Park faithful want a forward who can score goals, but also one who is willing to work the channels and make it difficult for the opposition.

It remains to be seen whether Adams can perform in the Premier League, but his goal record is so impressive this season that he has to be taken seriously.
