Robin Mirisola seems to have taken his game to the next level since the turn of the calendar, and his performances have certainly not gone unnoticed. According to a report from SportsBoom, Everton have joined the likes of Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest in their pursuit of the teenage attacking sensation.
Scouts from all three Premier League clubs have been spotted in the stands to watch the 19-year-old striker in action for Genk in the Belgian top flight and the Europa League. He has put in some impressive performances in big games during March, and it has certainly elevated his status from merely a prospect to a game-changer.
Mirisola has come up the ranks at Genk. He got promoted to their first team last summer and has only gone from strength to strength since. Apart from the goals and assists, his link-up play has stood out. Scouts have been impressed with the maturity that he has shown, along with the tactical discipline.

He has been involved in 31 matches, racked up over 1,000 minutes and has contributed towards four goals. Despite the limited game time, the youngster has had quite an impact. Scouts from Everton, Bournemouth, and Nottingham have primarily focused on him during games against Union SG, St. Truiden, and La Louviere.
They see the 1.84m striker as a fox in the box. He is someone who loves to drop deep and link up with his teammates to create space for others. While he is not yet ready for the physical demands of the Premier League, he is certainly getting there. More importantly, his balance and hold-up play suggest he has what it takes to succeed at the highest level.
Mirisola is not yet ready to have a prominent role in any of the three Premier League clubs, but he could be a great acquisition for the long run. For now, he could prove to be a valuable squad member. While no official bid has been made just yet, Everton and Bournemouth are conducting “cost-benefit analyses” ahead of the summer.
Meanwhile, Genk secured his future with a new deal at the start of the year. With his contract now running until the summer of 2030, they want between €20–€25 million to sanction his departure.
