Everton has reportedly entered the race to sign Austrian right-winger Patrick Wimmer from Bundesliga club Wolfsburg, according to journalist Ekrem Konur. The move comes as the Merseyside side looks to strengthen its attacking options under David Moyes this winter.<\/p>\n
Patrick Wimmer, 24, began his career in Austria at SC Sitzenberg before moving to Austria Vienna, where he made his mark in youth and senior levels. In January 2022, Wimmer joined Wolfsburg from Arminia Bielefeld, helping the club maintain its Bundesliga status despite several relegation battles.<\/p>\n
Since arriving in the German top flight, Wimmer has contributed 13 goals and 18 assists, establishing himself as one of Wolfsburg\u2019s most dynamic attacking players. This season alone, he has added nine goal contributions in 17 appearances across all competitions, highlighting his consistency and creativity on the right flank.<\/p>\n
Everton currently relies on wingers such as Dwight McNeil, Tyler Dibling, Illiman Ndiaye, and academy graduate Harrison Armstrong. While Jack Grealish has been deployed on the left, Moyes is seeking additional depth and competition. Wimmer\u2019s potential arrival would provide tactical flexibility and a proven attacking threat for the Toffees.<\/p>\n
Wolfsburg is reportedly open to a January departure for Wimmer, with a fee around \u00a313 million considered sufficient for a permanent transfer. However, Everton faces stiff competition from clubs including Fulham, Fiorentina, and Lazio, all monitoring the Austrian\u2019s situation.<\/p>\n
Former Wolfsburg manager Ralph Hasenh\u00fcttl described Wimmer as \u201cincredibly dynamic\u201d following a key brace that secured a 2-1 win over Werder Bremen last season, underscoring his impact in high-pressure matches.<\/p>\n
With the transfer window underway, Everton will need to move quickly if they hope to secure Wimmer\u2019s signature and reinforce their squad for the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
