Nicolas Pépé still a Premier League target
After a mixed season at Villarreal, Nicolas Pépé is on the radar of two English clubs: Everton and Wolverhampton. Both sides are hunting for attacking reinforcements, and the Ivorian international’s profile is catching their eye.
At 29, the former Arsenal winger knows the Premier League inside out. He could slot right back in without needing time to adapt. His contract with Villarreal runs until 2026, but the Spanish club is reportedly open to a sale or renegotiation.
This season, Nicolas Pépé featured in 24 La Liga matches. He netted 2 goals and provided 5 assists. While those numbers are down from his usual standards, his talent is undeniable. His pace, dribbling skills and ability to make a difference still attract scouts. A return to the Premier League could be the spark to reignite his career.
